Simple one-dimensional integral representations for two-loop self-energies: the master diagram

Abstract The scalar two-loop self-energy master diagram is studied in the case of arbitrary masses. Analytical results in terms of Lauricella- and Appell-functions are presented for the imaginary part. By using the dispersion relation a one-dimensional integral representation is derived. This representation uses only elementary functions and is thus well suited for a numerical calculation of the master diagram.
