The total cross section for the production of massive quarks in electron positron annihilation can be predicted in perturbative QCD. After expansion in m^2/s the quartic terms, i.e. those proportional to m^4/s^2, are calculated up to order…
The adaptive perturbation method decomposes a Hamiltonian by the diagonal elements and non-diagonal elements of the Fock state. The diagonal elements of the Fock state are solvable but can contain the information about coupling constants.…
