We show that the coupling constant of a quantum-induced composite field is scale invariant due to its compositeness condition. It is first demonstrated in next-to-leading order in 1/N in typical models, and then we argue that it holds…
The $b\bar b$ spectrum is calculated with the use of a relativistic Hamiltonian where the gluon-exchange between a quark and an antiquark is taken as in background perturbation theory. We observed that the splittings $\Delta_1=…
The strong coupling constant is one of the fundamental parameters of the standard model of particle physics. In this review I will briefly summarise the theoretical framework, within which the strong coupling constant is defined and how it…
The strong coupling constant g_(Ko* K pi) of the scalar Ko* meson decay to (K pi) is calculated in light cone QCD sum rule. The predicted value of the coupling constant g_(Ko* K pi) is in a good agreement with the experimental result.
We develop an approach to study the entanglement in two coupled harmonic oscillators. We start by introducing an unitary transformation to end up with the solutions of the energy spectrum. These are used to construct the corresponding…
In this article, we take the point of view that the light scalar meson $a_0(980)$ is a conventional $q\bar{q}$ state, and calculate the coupling constants $g_{a_0\eta\pi^0}$ and $g_{a_0 \eta'\pi^0}$ with the light-cone QCD sum rules. The…
Astrophysical indications that the fine structure constant is time dependent are discussed in the framework of grand unification models. A variation of the electromagnetic coupling constant could either be generated by a corresponding time…
We determine the units and numerical values for a class of couplings in the effective theory of perturbative heterotic string vacua, with the emphasis on the correct translation between the canonical gauge coupling g and Planck scale…
Unification of electromagnetic, weak, and strong coupling constants is studied in the extension of standard model with additional fermions and scalars. It is remarkable that this unification in the supersymmetric extension of standard model…
The coupling constant of g_phi-pi-gamma decay is calculated in the method of QCD sum rules. A comparison of our prediction on the coupling constant with the result obtained from analysis of the experimental data is performed.
The string landscape suggests that the supersymmetry breaking scale can be high, and then the simplest low energy effective theory is the Standard Model (SM). We show that gauge coupling unification can be achieved at about 10^{16-17} GeV…
We present a reasoning that the string coupling constant should be 1 from the assumption that the area spectrum derived from loop quantum gravity must be equal to the area spectrum calculated from "stringy differential geometry." To this…
Following the successful prediction of an exact value for the fine structure constant later confirmed to differ numerically from the centre value of the latest experimental recommended CODATA range by 10^{-12}, further analysis and…
Extrapolating the coupling strengths to very high energies, one finds that they do not converge to a single coupling constant, as expected in the simplest gauge theory of Grand Unification, the SU(5) theory. We find that the coupling…
We present a discussion on how to define the running electromagnetic coupling constant at $M_Z$ or some other intermediate scale as e.g. $m_\Upsilon$. We argue that a natural definition consistent with general requirements of the…
We evaluate the $\pi N$ coupling constant using a QCD sum rule based on the pion-to-vacuum matrix element of the correlator of two interpolating nucleon fields. The part of the correlator with Dirac structure $k\llap/\gamma_5$ is used,…
The numerical value of the cosmological constant is calculated using a recently suggested cosmological model and found to be 2.036 x 10^(-35) s^(-2). This value of the cosmological constant is in excellent agreement with the measurements…
We employ QCD sum rules to calculate the coupling constants g$_{\rho\pi\gamma}$ and g$_{\omega\pi\gamma}$ by studying the three point ${\rho\pi\gamma}$- and ${\omega\pi\gamma}$-correlation functions. Our results for the decay widths…
The pion-nucleon coupling constant $g_{\pi N}$ is studied on the basis of the QCD sum rules. Both the Borel sum rules and the finite energy sum rules for $g_{\pi N}$ are used to examine the effects of higher dimensional operators (up to…
The apparent unification of gauge couplings in Grand Unified Theories around 10$^{16}$ GeV is one of the strong arguments in favor of Supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model. In this paper, an analysis of the measurements of the…
