Description

Heavy flavor contributions are of key relevance for DIS precision analyses of HERA and world hard scattering data. We present recent results on the $O(as^3 T_F^2)$ contributions to the massive operator matrix elements (OMEs) describing the Heavy Flavor Wilson Coefficients in the limit $Q^2 \gg m^2$ for general values of the Mellin variable $N$. We thereby consider contributions stemming from diagrams with two fermionic lines of identical or different masses. For two heavy flavor Wilson coefficients, $L_{q}^{\sf PS}(N)$ and $L_{g}^{\sf S}$, the complete 3-loop results for general vales of $N$ has been obtained. Along with the computation for the OMEs a first independent recomputation of the corresponding contributions to the 3--loop anomalous dimensions $\gamma_{qg}(N)$, $\gamma_{qq}^{\sf PS}(N)$, and $\gamma_{qq}^{\sf NS,(TR)}(N)$ has been performed. All our results could be expressed by nested harmonic sums only, while in intermediary results more general structures emerged.
