QCD sum rules are used to calculate the $q^2$ dependence of the $\pi NN$ coupling $g_{\pi NN} (q^2)$ in the spacelike region $0.5 \ {\mbox{GeV}}^2 \lesssim q^2 \lesssim 1.5\ {\mbox{GeV}}^2$. We study the Borel sum rule for the three point…
We review the DPD sum rules and establish their validity to all orders in QCD. This is done using a diagrammatic approach and light-front perturbation theory. In the process we furthermore investigate the QCD evolution of double parton…
Borel transformed QCD sum rules conventionally use a real valued parameter (the Borel mass) for specifying the exponential weight over which hadronic spectral functions are averaged. In this paper, it is shown that the Borel mass can be…
