QCD condensates and $\alpha_s$ from $e^+e^-$ and $\tau$-decays
Abstract
In this talk, I review the determinations of the QCD condensates and within the SVZ expansion using the ratio of Laplace sum rule (LSR) and -like moments in Hadrons and in Hadrons Axial-vector (A) and V-A channels. Some misprints in the original papers [1-3] have been corrected. We found that the value of the gluon condensate agrees with the one GeV from quarkonia and some other sum rules but less accurate, while the factorization of the four-quark condensate is violated by a factor about 6: GeV which confirms previous findings. Extracting the QCD condensates up to dimension D=20 from and the axial-vector channel of -decay, we do not find any exponential growth of their values in the Euclidian region, thus excluding (by duality) any significant effect of the so-called Duality Violation (DV) in the Time-like one. The optimal values of from Hadrons and -decays agree each others and lead to the average: [resp.0.3330(57)] [resp. 0.1201] for Fixed Order (FO) [resp. Contour improved (CI)] PT series to be compared with the PDG24 average (without Lattice calculations): .
