We evaluate the two-loop QCD diagrams contributing to the leading color coefficient of the heavy-quark pair production cross section in the gluon fusion channel. We obtain an analytic expression, which is valid for any value of the Mandelstam invariants s and t and of the heavy-quark mass m. Our findings agree with previous analytic results in the small-mass limit and with recent results for the coefficients of the IR poles.

One-loop amplitudes for $t\bar{t}j$ and $t\bar{t}\gamma$ productions at the LHC through $\mathcal{O}(\epsilon^2)$
Analytic expressions for one-loop helicity amplitudes in ttj and ttγ production are derived to O(ε²) as linear combinations of pentagon functions with rational coefficients in momentum-twistor variables, obtained via ...
