QCD sum rule analysis of the field strength correlator

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

The gauge invariant two-point correlator for the gluon field strength tensor is analysed by means of the QCD sum rule method. To this end, we make use of a relation of this correlator to a two-point function for a quark-gluon hybrid in the limit of the quark mass going to infinity. From the sum rules a relation between the gluon correlation length and the gluon condensate is obtained. We briefly compare our results to recent determinations of the field strength correlator on the lattice.
