The 1/N expansion of QCD can be used to calculate properties of nucleons and Delta baryons, such as masses, magnetic moments, and pion couplings. The predictions of the 1/N expansion are in excellent agreement with the experimental data.…
Power corrections in QCD (both conventional and unconventional ones arising from the ultraviolet region) are discussed within the infrared finite coupling-dispersive approach. It is shown how power corrections in Minkowskian quantities can…
We introduce and motivate the method of effective chsrges, and consider how to implement an all-orders resummation of large kinematical logarithms in this formalism. Fits for QCD \Lambda and power corrections are performed for the e+e-…
