Two-Loop Massive Operator Matrix Elements for Polarized and Unpolarized Deep-Inelastic Scattering

Abstract

The $O({\alpha }_s^2)$ massive operator matrix elements for unpolarized and polarized heavy flavor production at asymptotic values $Q^2>>m^2$ are calculated in Mellin space without applying the integration-by-parts method. We confirm previous results given in Refs. \cite{BU1,BU2}, however, obtain much more compact representations.
