It had been known that the Borel transforms of the twice quark pole mass 2*mq and of the QCD q-barq static potential V(r) have leading infrared renormalons at b=1/2 such that they cancel in the sum. The renormalon residue of 2*mq had been…

The successive perturbative estimates of the pressure of QCD at high temperature T show no sign of convergence, unless the coupling constant g is unrealistically small. Exploiting known results of an effective field theory which separates…
The inclusive four-particle phase space integral of any $1\to 4$ matrix element in massless QCD contains divergences due to the soft and collinear emission of up to two particles in the final state. We show that any term appearing in this…
We compute the three loop MSbar anomalous dimension for the 3-quark operator corresponding to the proton. This requires the treatment of gamma^5 within dimensional regularization as well as evanescent operators generated through the…

In Ref. [1], a method was proposed to calculate QED corrections to hadronic self energies from lattice QCD without power-law finite-volume errors. In this paper, we extend the method to processes which occur at second-order in the weak…
We consider general renormalizable scalar field theory and derive six-loop beta functions for all parameters in d = 4 dimensions within the $\overline{MS}$-scheme. We do not explicitly compute relevant loop integrals but utilize…
We renormalize QCD at three loops in the modified regularization invariant, RI', scheme in arbitrary covariant gauge and deduce that the four loop beta-function is equivalent to the MSbar result. The anomalous dimensions of the scalar,…
