چکیده

Small momentum expansion of the ”sunset” diagram with three different masses is obtained. Coefficients at powers of p2 are evaluated explicitly in terms of dilogarithms and elementary functions. Also some power expansions of ”sunset” diagram in terms of different sets of variables are given. The ”sunset” diagram (see Fig. 1) was the object of investigation in several recent works [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]. Such activity is initiated, certainly, by rather high precision of experimental testing of the standard model that needs sometimes evaluation of two-loop Feynman diagrams for comparison of the theory and experiments.

Two-loop self-energy diagrams worked out with NDIM

In this work we calculate two two-loop massless Feynman integrals pertaining to self-energy diagrams using NDIM (Negative Dimensional Integration Method). We show that the answer we get is 36-fold degenerate. We then consider special cases of exponents for propagators and the outcoming results compared with known ones obtained via traditional methods. PACS numbers: 02.90+p, 03.70+k, 12.38.Bx Sh...

The Pinch Technique Beyond One Loop: The Gauge-Independent Two-Loop Quark Self-Energy

It is shown how the pinch technique algorithm may be consistently extended beyond the one-loop level to obtain the gauge-independent two-loop fermion self-energy −iΣ̂(p) in QCD in the pinch technique approach. The starting point for the construction is the general diagrammatic representation of the two-loop quark self-energy in terms of renormalized one-loop twoand three-point function and tree ...

Two-Loop Diagrammatics in a Self-Dual Background

Diagrammatic rules are developed for simplifying two-loop QED diagrams with propagators in a constant self-dual background field. This diagrammatic analysis, using dimensional regularization, is used to explain how the fully renormalized two-loop Euler-Heisenberg effective Lagrangian for QED in a self-dual background field is naturally expressed in terms of one-loop diagrams. The connection bet...

Self-duality, Helicity and Background Field Loopology

I show that helicity plays an important role in the development of rules for computing higher loop effective Lagrangians. Specifically, the two-loop Heisenberg-Euler effective Lagrangian in quantum electrodynamics is remarkably simple when the background field has definite helicity (i.e., is self-dual). Furthermore, the twoloop answer can be derived essentially algebraically, and is naturally e...

We verify the QED Ward identity for the twoand three -point functions at non-equilibrium in the HTL limit. We use the Keldysh formalism of real time finite temperature field theory. We obtain an identity of the same form as the Ward identity for a set of one loop self-energy and one loop three-point vertex diagrams which are constructed from HTL effective propagators and vertices. Supported by ...
