%0 Journal Article %T The static potential in QCD to two loops %A York Schroder %J Physics %D 1998 %I arXiv %R 10.1016/S0370-2693(99)00010-6 %X We evaluate the static QCD potential to two--loop order. Compared to a previous calculation a sizable reduction of the two--loop coefficient $a_2$ is found. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/hep-ph/9812205v1
