Abstract
We calculate the next-to-leading-order QCD corrections to the perturbative term in the operator product expansion of the spectral functions of light tetraquark currents. By using also configuration-space methods we keep the momentum-space four-loop calculation to a manageable level. We find that the next-to-leading-order corrections to the perturbative term are large and can amount to . The corrections to the corresponding Borel sum rules, however, are small since the nonperturbative condensate contributions dominate the Borel sum rules.
