The Renormalization Group Improvement of the QCD Static Potentials

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-31 v2 High Energy Physics - Lattice

Abstract

We resum the leading ultrasoft logs of the singlet and octet static QCD potentials within potential NRQCD. We then obtain the complete three-loop renormalization group improvement of the singlet QCD static potential. The discrepancies between the perturbative evaluation and the lattice results at short distances are slightly reduced.
