$O(α_s)$ Heavy Flavor Corrections to Charged Current Deep-Inelastic Scattering in Mellin Space

Abstract
We provide a fast and precise Mellin-space implementation of the $O(α_s)$ heavy flavor Wilson coefficients for charged current deep inelastic scattering processes. They are of importance for the extraction of the strange quark distribution in neutrino-nucleon scattering and the QCD analyses of the HERA charged current data. Errors in the literature are corrected. We also discuss a series of more general parton parameterizations in Mellin space.
