abstract
We compute the part of the two-loop virtual amplitude for the process $gg \to V_1 V_2 \to (l_1 \bar l'_{1}) (l_2 \bar l'_2)$, where $V_{1,2}$ are arbitrary electroweak gauge bosons, that receives contributions from loops of massless quarks. Invariant masses of electroweak bosons are allowed to be different from each other. Our result provides an important ingredient for improving the description of gluon fusion contribution to the production of four-lepton final states at the LHC.

ggxy: Fast and flexible NLO QCD corrections to gluon-initiated processes
The ggxy library implements NLO QCD corrections for gg→ZH and gg→ZZ with full top-quark mass dependence using high-energy and forward-limit expansions, validated against existing results and interfaced to POWHEG for parton-shower matching.
