摘要
The computation of the correction Deltar in the W-Z mass correlation, derived from muon decay, is described at the two-loop level in the Standard Model. Technical aspects which become relevant at this level are studied, e.g, gauge parameter independent renormalization and the treatment of gamma (5). Exact results for Deltar and the the W mass prediction including O(alpha (2)) corrections with fermion loops are presented and compared with previous results of a next-to-leading order expansion in the top-quark mass.
