The leptonic and semileptonic decay propertis of Bc mesons are studied in a QCD potential model. The CKM element for the leptonic decay is calculated by evaluating its decay constant. With the help of the Isgur-Wise function, the form…
We compute the running QCD coupling on the lattice by evaluating two-point and three-point off-shell gluon Green's functions in a fixed gauge and imposing non-perturbative renormalisation conditions on them. Our exploratory study is…
Pure CFTs have vanishing $\beta$-function at any value of the coupling. One example of a pure CFT is the O(N) Wess-Zumino model in 2+1 dimensions in the large N limit. This model can be analytically solved at finite temperature for any…
A computation of the NRQCD $\beta$ function both in the Lorentz gauge family and in the Coulomb gauge to one loop order endorses a velocity power counting scheme for dimensionally regularised NRQCD. In addition to the ultrasoft scale…
Results are reported for the beta-function of weakly coupled conformal gauge theories on the lattice, SU(3) with Nf=14 fundamental and Nf=3 sextet fermions. The models are chosen to be close to the upper end of the conformal window where…
Probing the properties of the discovered Higgs boson may tell us whether or not it is the same particle as the one predicted by the Standard Model. To this aim we parametrize deviations of the Higgs couplings to matter from the Standard…
We present data for the scaling behavior of lattice QCD with two flavors of light Wilson fermions. This is done by matching $\pi$ n and $\rho$ masses at the two lattice sizes of $16^3\times32 $ and $8^3\times16$. We find that at…
The strong coupling constant alpha_S is determined using recently re-analysed e+e- annihilation data collected by the JADE experiment at sqrt{s}= 14 to 44 GeV. The measurements are based on O(alpha_S**2)+NLLA predictions for various event…
We calculate the relation between the bare coupling constant g_0 and the MSbar-renormalized coupling g_MS: g_0 = Z_g(g_0,a \mu) g_MS, to 2 loops in perturbation theory. We employ the standard Wilson action for gluons and the overlap action…

The evolution of the electromagnetic coupling, alpha, in the momentum-transfer range 1800GeV^2 < -Q^2 < 21600GeV^2 is studied with about 40000 Bhabha-scattering events collected with the L3 detector at LEP at centre-of-mass energies…
We study the strong interactions among the heavy bottom spin--1/2 $\Sigma_b$ baryon, nucleon and $B$ meson as well as the heavy charmed spin--1/2 $\Sigma_c$ baryon, nucleon and $D$ meson in the context of QCD sum rules. We calculate the…
We extract a numerical value for the strong coupling constant \alpha_s from the \tau-lepton decay rate into nonstrange particles. A new feature of our procedure is the explicit use of renormalization scheme invariance in analytical form in…
The results of LO {\it Fixed point} QCD (FP-QCD) analysis of the CCFR data for the nucleon structure function $~xF_3(x,Q^2)~$ are presented. The predictions of FP-QCD, in which the Callan-Symanzik $~\beta~$ function admits a {\it second…
The free energy density, or pressure, of QCD has at high temperatures an expansion in the coupling constant g, known so far up to order g^5. We compute here the last contribution which can be determined perturbatively, g^6 ln(1/g), by…
In this paper, minimal coupling constants of meson-$\Delta$ baryon and meson-nucleon to $\Delta$ baryon transition have been investigated in the AdS/QCD soft-wall model at finite temperature limits. Initially, the right and left profile…

We present two determinations of the strong coupling \(\alpha_s\). The first one is from the static energy at three-loop accuracy, and may be considered an update of earlier determinations by some of us. The new analysis includes new…
We study the criticality and subcriticality of powers $(-\Delta)^\alpha$ with $\alpha>0$ of the discrete Laplacian $-\Delta$ acting on $\ell^2(\mathbb{N})$. We prove that these positive powers of the Laplacian are critical if and only if…
