An analytic analysis of the pion decay constant in three-flavoured chiral perturbation theory

Abstract A representation of the two-loop contribution to the pion decay constant in SU(3) chiral perturbation theory is presented. The result is analytic up to the contribution of the three (different) mass sunset integrals, for which an expansion in their external momentum has been taken. We also...
