Scalar one-loop Feynman integrals with complex internal masses revisited

Abstract

In this paper, we study systematically scalar one-loop two-, three-, and four-point Feynman integrals with complex internal masses. Our analytic results presented in this report are valid for both real and complex internal masses. The calculations are then implemented into a {\tt Mathematica} (version $9$) package and {\tt FORTRAN} program. Our program is cross-checked numerically with {\tt LoopTools} (version $2.14$) in real as well as complex internal masses. We find a perfect agreement between our results and {\tt LoopTools} for all cases. Additionally, this work is applied for evaluating scalar one-loop Feynman integrals developed leading Landau singularities which may appear in real scattering processes at colliders. Last but not least, the method used in this report can also extend to evaluate tensor one-loop integrals. Therefore, this may open a new approach which can solve the inverse Gram determinant problem analytically.
