Massive Vacuum Feynman Integrals at Five Loops
Dr. Cedric Studerus (Universität Bielefeld)


Massive Vacuum Feynman Integrals (tadpoles) occur in asymptotic expansion of Feynman diagrams in perturbative Quantum field theory.
Examples are the calculation of the beta-function and anomalous dimensions of e.g. QCD and the pressure in Thermal QCD at high temperature. In this talk, I will focus on the beta-function of QCD and discuss the challenges on meets at the five loop order.
