We propose an extraction of the running coupling constant of QCD in the infrared region from experimental data on deep inelastic inclusive scattering at Bjorken x -> 1. We first attempt a perturbative fit of the data that extends NLO PQCD…
A quantum kinetic formalism is developed to study the dynamical interplay of quantum and statistical-kinetic properties of non-equilibrium multi-parton systems produced in high-energy QCD processes. The approach provides the means to follow…
QCD is well understood at short distances where perturbative calculations are feasible. Establishing an explicit analytic connection between the short-distance regime and the large-distance physics of quark confinement has been a…
Theoretical basics and experimental determinations of the coupling parameter of the Strong Interaction, $\alpha_s$, are reviewed. The world average value of $\alpha_s$, expressed at the energy scale of the rest mass of the $Z^0$ boson, is…
We analyze the free energy of a static quark anti-quark pair in quenched QCD at short and large distances. From this we deduce running couplings, g^2(r,T), and determine the length scale that separates at high temperature the short distance…
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 investigate the occurrence of power terms in the running QCD coupling by analysing non-perturbative measurements of alpha_s (p) at low momenta obtained from the lattice three-gluon vertex. Our exploratory study provides some evidence for…

We study deviations from the perturbative asymptotic behaviour in the running QCD coupling by analysing non-perturbative measurements of alpha_s (p) at low momenta as obtained from the lattice three-gluon vertex. Our exploratory study…
The quark-antiquark potential is constructed by making use of a new analytic running coupling in QCD. This running coupling arises under ``analytization'' of the renormalization group equation. The rising behavior of the quark-antiquark…
Analytic QCD models are those where the QCD running coupling has the physically correct analytic behavior, i.e., no Landau singularities in the Euclidean regime. We present a simple analytic QCD model in which the discontinuity function of…
Within contemporary hadron physics there are two common methods for determining the momentum-dependence of the interaction between quarks: the top-down approach, which works toward an ab initio computation of the interaction via direct…
We examine, in the `t Hooft renormalization scheme, the analytic running coupling $\bar\alpha_t(Q^2)$ in QCD, using the two-loop $\beta$-function with positive expansion parameters $\beta_0$ and $\beta_1$. An exact integral representation…
We show the construction of the dual superconducting theory for the confinement mechanism from QCD in the maximally abelian (MA) gauge using the lattice QCD Monte Carlo simulation. We find that essence of infrared abelian dominance is…
These lectures provide an overview of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), the $SU(3)_C$ gauge theory of the strong interactions. After briefly reviewing the empirical considerations which lead to the introduction of {\it colour}, the QCD…
Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is the fundamental theory describing the strong nuclear force and the interactions among quarks and gluons. Topological stars, characterized by extreme density conditions, offer a unique environment where QCD…
We investigate the influence of a magnetic field on the running coupling constant for a heavy-quark model in a bottom-up holographic approach. To achieve this, we employ a magnetized Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton background that captures the…
Recent studies based on non-perturbative lattice Monte-Carlo solutions of Quantum Chromodynamics, the theory of strong interactions, demonstrated that at high temperature there is a phase change from confined hadronic matter to a deconfined…
We present an evaluation of the running coupling constant and the quark mass renormalization factor for $N_f=2+1$ QCD. The Schr\"odinger functional scheme is used as the intermediate scheme to carry out non-perturbative running from the low…
Dynamic AdS/QCD is a holographic model of strongly coupled gauge theories with the dynamics included through the running anomalous dimension of the quark bilinear, gamma. We apply it to describe the physics of massive quarks in the…
