The effective electroweak mixing angle $\sin^2θ_{eff}$ with two-loop bosonic contributions

We present the results for the full electroweak two-loop bosonic contributions to the effective leptonic mixing angle of the $Z$ boson, $\sin^2θ_{\rm eff}$, in the Standard Model. A method applied to extract collinear divergences from two-loop vertex-functions is described. Comparisons of our results with those from a recent previous calculation show complete agreement.

Higgs-mass dependence of the effective electroweak mixing angle $\sin^2θ_{eff}$ at the two-loop level

The result for the Higgs-dependent electroweak two-loop bosonic contributions to the effective leptonic mixing angle of the $Z$-boson in the Standard Model is presented. Together with the previously calculated fermionic contributions it yields the complete dependence of $\sin^2θ_{\rm eff}$ on the Higgs-boson mass $M_H$. Compared to the fermionic contributions, the bosonic contributions are found to be smaller and have the opposite sign, compensating part of the fermionic contributions.

The effective electroweak mixing angle $\sin^2θ_{eff}$ with two-loop fermionic contributions

We present the results from a calculation of the full electroweak two-loop fermionic contributions to the effective leptonic mixing angle of the $Z$ boson, $\sin^2θ_{eff}$, in the Standard Model. On-shell renormalization and analytic calculations are performed for the three-point vertex functions at zero external momenta, whereas irreducible three-point integrals for non-vanishing external momenta are evaluated semi-analytically applying two different methods. Comparisons with a previous calculation show complete agreement.
