SUMMARY

The discussion centers on finding references for the two-loop gluon propagator, specifically in Feynman gauge, with an additional interest in light-cone gauge. A recommended resource is the paper available at arXiv:1403.4350v2, which is accessible and likely available in university libraries. Participants emphasize the importance of having both gauge formulations for comprehensive understanding.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of quantum field theory concepts.
  • Familiarity with Feynman gauge and light-cone gauge.
  • Knowledge of two-loop calculations in perturbative quantum chromodynamics (QCD).
  • Access to academic resources such as arXiv for research papers.
NEXT STEPS
  • Read the paper "arXiv:1403.4350v2" for detailed insights on the two-loop gluon propagator.
  • Explore additional literature on perturbative QCD to deepen understanding of gauge theories.
  • Investigate the differences between Feynman gauge and light-cone gauge in quantum field theory.
  • Review advanced textbooks on quantum field theory that cover loop calculations.
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for theoretical physicists, graduate students in particle physics, and researchers focusing on quantum field theory and gauge theories.

Does anybody know a good reference for the gluon propagator at two loop?
I need it in Feynman gauge, but to have it in light-cone gauge as well is a plus.

Preferably a paper, or a book that is common (i.e. easy to find in our university's library :-) ).

Thanks!
