Abstract

We use the method of differential equations to analytically evaluate all planar three-loop Feynman integrals relevant for form factor calculations involving massive particles. Our results for ninety master integrals at general $q^2$ are expressed in terms of multiple polylogarithms, and results for fiftyone master integrals at the threshold $q^2=4m^2$ are expressed in terms of multiple polylogarithms of argument one, with indices equal to zero or to a sixth root of unity.

Highlights

  • When considering Feynman integrals with less than 9 propagators, it typically happens that their graph can be represented as a subdiagram of more than one of the families shown in figure 1

  • A given diagram can be represented in many equivalent ways

  • We have presented two more applications of the strategy to solve DE for Feynman integrals initiated in [4]
