We analyze the static QCD potential in the distance region 0.1 fm < r < 1 fm. We combine most recent lattice computations and perturbative computations of the potential, in the framework of operator-product expansion (OPE). We determine…
The static QCD potential is analyzed in operator-product-expansion within potential-NRQCD framework when r << 1/Lambda_{QCD}. We show that the leading short-distance contribution to the potential, defined as a perturbatively computable…
The leading non-perturbative contribution to the static QCD potential at r << 1/Lambda_QCD is known to be O(r^2) in operator-product expansion. It indicates that a "Coulomb+linear" potential at r <~ 1/Lambda_QCD is included in the…
We determine the strong coupling constant $\alpha_s$ from the static QCD potential by matching a theoretical calculation with a lattice QCD computation. We employ a new theoretical formulation based on the operator product expansion, in…
We compare the perturbatively calculated QCD potential to that obtained from lattice calculations in the theory without light quark flavours. We examine E_tot(r) = 2 m_pole + V_QCD(r) by re-expressing it in the MSbar mass m =…
We determine the strong coupling constant $\alpha_s(M_Z)$ from the static QCD potential by matching a lattice result and a theoretical calculation. We use a new theoretical framework based on operator product expansion (OPE), where…
We computed the static potential and Wilson loops to $O(\alpha^2)$ in perturbation theory for different lattice quark and gluon actions. In general, we find short distance lattice data to be well described by ``boosted perturbation…
We show analytically that the QCD potential can be expressed, up to an O(Lambda_QCD^3 r^2) uncertainty, as the sum of a ``Coulomb'' potential (with log corrections at short distances) and a linear potential, within an approximation based on…
We present O(g^4) calculations of both planar and non-planar Wilson loops for various actions in the presence of sea quarks. In particular, the plaquette, the static potential and the static self energy are calculated to this order for…
The perturbative QCD static potential and ultrasoft contributions, which together give the static energy, have been calculated to three- and four-loop order respectively, by several authors. Using the renormalization group, and Pad\'e…
We compute the QCD static force and potential using gradient flow at next-to-leading order in the strong coupling. The static force is the spatial derivative of the static potential: it encodes the QCD interaction at both short and long…
While lattice QCD allows for reliable results at small momentum transfers (large quark separations), perturbative QCD is restricted to large momentum transfers (small quark separations). The latter is determined up to a reference momentum…
We present the analysis of the static potential extracted from Wilson loops measured on CLS ensembles generated with Wilson gauge action and Nf=2 flavors of O(a) improved Wilson quarks at three different lattice spacings and a range of…
We show that the O(Lambda) ambiguity in the pole mass can be fixed in a natural way by introducing a modified nonperturbative V-scheme momentum space coupling tilde-alphaV(q) where the confining contributions have been subtracted out. The…
The heavy quark-antiquark potential in perturbative QCD is subject to ambiguities. We show how to derive a well-defined and stable short-distance potential that can be matched to results from lattice QCD simulations at intermediate…
We perform an exploratory study of the operator product expansion of the quark propagator on the lattice at short distance in coordinate space. This permits a simple determination of the quark condensate, <qq>^MS(2 GeV)=(-265\pm 5\pm 22…
We investigate the $u=1/2$ [$\mathcal{O}(\Lambda_{\rm QCD})$] and $u=3/2$ [$\mathcal{O}(\Lambda_{\rm QCD}^3)$] renormalons in the static QCD potential in position space and momentum space using the OPE of the potential-NRQCD effective field…
We report on the measurement of the static potential and the scale r_0 from HYP-smeared Wilson loops in two flavour QCD. We analyse the quark mass dependence of the potential and r_0 at three lattice spacings. We also compare the QCD static…
We present a high order perturbative computation of the renormalization constants Z_V, Z_A and of the ratio Z_P/Z_S for Wilson fermions. The computational setup is the one provided by the RI'-MOM scheme. Three- and four-loop expansions are…
We discuss the spectrum of open string and point particle excitations in QCD with various source representations. Some general relations are introduced and lattice results presented. In particular we discuss the short-distance behaviour,…
