Description

An analytical result for the four-loop QCD corrections for the colour structure (dabcdF)^2 to the massless non-singlet quark form factor is obtained.
The evaluation involves non-trivial non-planar integrals diagrams with master integrals in the top sector. To evaluate the master integrals second mass scale is introduced and the corresponding differential equations are solved with respect to the ratio of the two scales. Analytical results for the cusp and collinear anomalous dimensions, and the finite part of the form factor are presented.
