The issue is the expediency of the QCD notions use in the low energy region down to the confinement scale, and, in particular, the efficacy of the QCD invariant coupling \bar{\alpha}_s(Q^2) with a minimal analytic modification in this…
A previous method for handling bound states in QCD is briefly revisited. Taking advantage of the Feynman-Schwinger representation for the iterated quark propagator in an external field, it is possible to give closed representations for…

Part I is devoted to the extraction of the QCD coupling from a bound state approach at low energy scales, where unphysical singularities make the RG-improved pQCD useless. Theoretical results on the meson spectrum based on a Bethe-Salpeter…

Scattering amplitudes of partons in QCD contain infrared divergences which can be resummed to all orders in terms of an anomalous dimension. Independently, in the limit of high-energy forward scattering, large logarithms of the energy can…
Perturbative QCD (pQCD) running coupling a(Q^2) (=alpha_s(Q^2)/pi) is expected to get modified at low spacelike momenta 0 < Q^2 < 1 GeV^2 so that, instead of having unphysical (Landau) singularities it remains smooth and finite there, due…
