Gluonic Massive Operator Matrix Elements

چکیده
The O(αsnfT 2 FCA,F ) terms to the massive gluonic operator matrix elements are calculated for general values of the Mellin variable N using a new summation technique. These twist-2 matrix elements occur as transition functions in the variable flavor number scheme at NNLO. The calculation uses sum-representations in generalized hypergeometric series turning into harmonic sums. The analytic continuation to complex values of N is provided.

Evaluation of Multi-Sums for Large Scale Problems
A big class of Feynman integrals, in particular, the coefficients of their Laurent series expansion w.r.t. the dimension parameter ε can be transformed to multi-sums over hypergeometric terms and harmonic sums. In this article, we present a general summation method based on difference fields that simplifies these multi–sums by transforming them from inside to outside to representations in terms...
متن کاملThe Gluonic Operator Matrix Elements at O ( α 2 s ) for DIS Heavy Flavor Production
We calculate the O(αs) gluonic operator matrix elements for the twist–2 operators, which contribute to the heavy flavor Wilson coefficients in unpolarized deeply inelastic scattering in the region Q2 ≫ m2, up to the linear terms in the dimensional parameter ε, (D = 4+ε). These quantities are required for the description of parton distribution functions in the variable flavor number scheme (VFNS...
متن کاملFactorization of Twist-Four Gluon Operator Contributions
We consider diagrams with up to four t-channel gluons in order to specify gluonic twist-four contributions to deep inelastic structure functions. This enables us to extend the method developed by R.K.Ellis, W.Furmanski, and R. Petronzio (EFP) [1] to the gluonic case. The method is based on low-order Feynman diagrams in combination with a dimensional analysis. It results in explicitly gauge inva...

We describe the calculation of the two–loop massive operator matrix elements for massive external fermions. These matrix elements are needed for the calculation of the O(α 2) initial state radiative corrections to e + e − annihilation into a neutral virtual gauge boson, based on the renor-malization group technique.
متن کاملSpectral Analysis of Gluonic Pole Matrix Elements
We use a spectator framework to investigate the spectral properties of quark-quarkgluon correlators and use this to study gluonic pole matrix elements. Such matrix elements appear in principle both for distribution functions such as the Sivers function and fragmentation functions such as the Collins function. We find that the contribution of the gluonic pole matrix element in fragmentation func...
