Abstract

We present scheme-independent calculations of the derivative of the beta function, denoted βIR\beta'_{IR}, at a conformally invariant infrared (IR) fixed point, in several asymptotically free chiral gauge theories, namely SO(4k+24k+2) with 2k42 \le k \le 4 with respective numbers NfN_f of fermions in the spinor representation, and E6_6 with fermions in the fundamental representation.
