Abstract

The two-loop renormalization constants Zm and Z1=Z2 of Feynman gauge quantum electrodynamics (QED) in the on-shell scheme are computed using dimensional regularization. Analytic results are obtained for these constants. In addition, analytic expressions are obtained for their expansion coefficients in the dimensional regulation parameter ϵ from order 1/ϵ2 through order ϵ5. The high order expansion coefficients will be needed for future multi-loop calculations in QED and will provide a useful check for multi-loop calculations in QCD.
