Two--Loop Anomalous Dimension Matrix for $\Delta S=1$ Weak Non-Leptonic Decays II: $\mathcal{O}({\alpha }_e{\alpha }_s)$

Abstract

We calculate the $10\times 10$ two--loop anomalous dimension matrix to order $\text{ord}({\alpha }_e{\alpha }_s)$ in the dimensional regularization scheme with anticommuting ${\gamma }_5$ (NDR) which is necessary for the extension of the $\Delta S=1$ weak Hamiltonian involving electroweak penguins beyond the leading logarithmic approximation. We demonstrate, how a direct calculation of penguin diagrams involving ${\gamma }_5$ in closed fermion loops can be avoided thus allowing a consistent calculation of two--loop anomalous dimensions in the simplest renormalization scheme with anticommuting ${\gamma }_5$ in $D$ dimensions. We give the necessary one--loop finite terms which allow to obtain the corresponding two--loop anomalous dimension matrix in the HV scheme with non--anticommuting ${\gamma }_5$.
