Abstract
The experimental measurable R-ratio can be used to perform a precise determination of the charm- and bottom-quark mass with the help of theoretical computable expansion coefficients of the vacuum polarization function. The four-loop contributions in perturbative QCD to the first two expansion coefficients of the vacuum polarization functions are presented.
