We perform a next-to-leading-order QCD analysis to world data on polarized structure functions $g_1$ and $g_2$ in a fixed-flavor number scheme. We include target mass corrections and higher twist effects in our fitting procedure and study…
Measurements of the top quark-antiquark pair production cross section, $\sigma_\mathrm{t\bar{t}}$, can be used to constrain the strong coupling constant, $\alpha_{S}$, the top quark mass, $m_\mathrm{t}$, and the parton distribution…
We reanalyze deep inelastic scattering data of BCDMS Collaboration by including proper cuts of ranges with large systematic errors. We perform also the fits of high statistic deep inelastic scattering data of BCDMS, SLAC, NM and BFP…
We present an explicit OPE analysis for the first moment of $g_1$ up to order $M^2/Q^2$. This result allows to calculate power corrections to the Bjorken and Ellis--Jaffe sum rules.
In this article, we calculate the strong coupling constant $g_{\Delta N\pi}$ and study the strong decay $\Delta^{++} \to p\pi$ with the light-cone QCD sum rules. The numerical value of the strong coupling constant $g_{\Delta N\pi}$ is…
We demonstrate that Borel QCD sum rules for heavy-light currents entail a very strong correlation between the $b$-quark mass $m_b$ and the $B$-meson decay constant $f_B,$ that is, $\delta f_B/f_B\approx-8\delta m_b/m_b.$ By starting from…
Measurements of the power-law corrections to Bjorken scaling and the behavior of structure functions in the highly stressed $x_{bj} \to 1$ regime of electroproduction can lead to new information on the quark-quark correlations controlling…
The strong coupling, $\alpha_s$, governs perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) and is one of the free parameters of the Standard Model. We introduce a new method that allows a precise extraction of $\alpha_s(m_Z)$ from dimensionless…
We present the final results for the deuteron spin structure functions obtained from the full data set collected with Jefferson Lab's CLAS in 2000-2001. Polarized electrons with energies of 1.6, 2.5, 4.2 and 5.8 GeV were scattered from…
We calculate analytically the flavor non-singlet $O(\alpha_s^2)$ massive Wilson coefficients for the inclusive neutral current non-singlet structure functions $F_{1,2,L}^{ep}(x,Q^2)$ and $g_{1,2}^{ep}(x,Q^2)$ and charged current non-singlet…
We consider the two-fold expansion in powers of the conformal anomaly and of the strong coupling $\alpha_s$ for the non-singlet contributions to Adler $D$-function and Bjorken polarized sum rule calculated previously in the $\MSbar$-scheme…
We present a brief overview of analytical QCD, focusing primarily on a less common form of the analytical coupling A_{\rm MA}(Q^2), which is particularly convenient for Q^2\sim\Lambda^2. This form has been extensively used in recent studies…
We prove that Borel QCD sum rules for heavy-light currents yield very strong correlations between the $b$-quark mass $m_b$ and the $B$-meson decay constant $f_B$, namely, $\delta f_B/f_B\approx -8\,\delta m_b/m_b$. This fact opens the…
The structure functions g1p and g1n have been measured over the range 0.014 < x < 0.9 and 1 < Q2 < 40 GeV2 using deep-inelastic scattering of 48 GeV longitudinally polarized electrons from polarized protons and deuterons. We find that the…
An update of measurements of the strong coupling constant $\alpha_s$ is given, representing the status of September 2002. The results convincingly prove the energy dependence of $\alpha_s$ and are in excellent agreement with the…

Light-cone QCD sum rules are employed to compute the strong coupling constants: g_{B^* B^* pi}, g_{B_1 B_0 pi} and g_{B_1 B^* pi}, where (B,B^*) and (B_0,B_1) are negative and positive parity (0^-,1^-) and (0^+,1^+) \bar qQ doublets. The…
