The authors' main claim We compute the complete third-order contributions to the coefficient functions for the longitudinal structure function F_L, thus completing the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) description of unpolarized electromagnetic deep-inelastic scattering in massless perturbative QCD.

We compute the complete third-order contributions to the coefficient functions for the longitudinal structure function F_L, thus completing the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) description of unpolarized electromagnetic deep-inelastic scattering in massless perturbative QCD. Our exact results agree with determinations of low even-integer Mellin moments and of the leading small-x terms in the flavour-singlet sector. In this letter we present compact and accurate parametrizations of the results and illustrate the numerical impact of the NNLO corrections.

The inclusive predictions provided in Table [ref] are at N$^3$LO QCD+NLO EW accuracy and were obtained with proVBFHH v2.1.0 [ref] and Recola+MoCaNLO [ref] , respectively. proVBFHH is based on Hoppet [ref] and makes use of the parametrised two- and three-loop deep inelastic scattering coefficient functions from [ref] for the cross sections presented here.
