We compute the fermionic contribution to the strong coupling αqq extracted from the static force in Lattice QCD up to order g4 in perturbation theory. This allows us to subtract the leading fermionic lattice artifacts from recent determinations of αqq produced in simulations of two dynamical charm quarks.
Moreover, by using a suitable parametrization of the βqq-function, we can evaluate the charm loop effects on αqq in the continuum limit.
