Four-loop QCD $\beta$-function with different fermion representations of the gauge group

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2017-07-25 v3

Abstract

We present analytical results at four-loop level for the β\beta-function of the coupling of a generic gauge group and any number of different quark representations. From this we can directly derive the gluino contribution to the strong coupling β\beta-function of supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model.
