An exploratory study for a new determination of the strong coupling constant alpha_s(MZ) from existing world data on the proton structure function F2p in the Q**2-range from ~ 5 to ~ 120 (GeV/c)**2 is presented. The main features of our…
While the idea of using the operator product expansion (OPE) to extract the strong coupling from hadronic $\tau$ decay data is not new, there is an ongoing controversy over how to include quark-hadron "duality violations" (i.e., resonance…
Recent experimental results on hadronic tau decays into strange particles by the OPAL collaboration are employed to determine V_us and m_s from moments of the invariant mass distribution. Our results are V_us = 0.2208+-0.0034 and m_s(2 GeV)…
We discuss the simultaneous determination of m_s and V_us from flavor-breaking hadronic tau decay sum rules, focussing on weight choices designed to better control problems associated with the slow convergence of the relevant integrated D=2…
The spectral function $\rho_{V-A}(s)$ is determined from ALEPH and OPAL data on hadronic tau decays using a neural network parametrization trained to retain the full experimental information on errors, their correlations and chiral sum…
We reevaluate the hadronic contribution to the running of the QED fine structure constant \aqed at $s=M_{\rm Z}^2$. We use data from \ee\ annihilation and $\tau$ decays at low energy and at the $q\bar{q}$ thresholds, where resonances occur.…
We perform numerical analysis of double-pinched Borel-Laplace QCD sum rules for the strangeless semihadronic $\tau$-decay data. The $D=0$ contribution to the theoretical contour integral in the sum rules is evaluated by the (truncated)…
The leptonic decays of the tau lepton provide relevant tests on the structure of the weak currents and the universality of their couplings to the gauge bosons. The hadronic tau decay modes constitute an ideal tool for studying low--energy…
Hadronically decaying tau leptons are of prime importance in numerous physics analyses in ATLAS. The spectrum of the possible applications of hadronically decaying tau leptons reaches from Standard Model measurements, including Higgs…
We investigate higher-order perturbative corrections to hadronic $\tau$ decays by applying nonlinear sequence-transformation techniques to the QCD correction $\delta^{(0)}$. In particular, we employ the Shanks transformation and several of…
The aim of this topical article is to outline the fundamental ideas underlying the recently developed Fractional Analytic Perturbation Theory (FAPT) of QCD and present its main calculational tools together with key applications. For this,…
A number of recent determinations of $m_s$ using hadronic $\tau$ decay data involve inclusive analyses based on the so-called $(k,0)$ spectral weights. We show here that the OPE representations of the longitudinal contributions appearing in…
The pure leptonic or semileptonic character of tau decays makes them a good laboratory to test the structure of the weak currents and the universality of their couplings to the gauge bosons. The hadronic tau decay modes constitute an ideal…
We study the simultaneous determination of m_s and V_us from flavor-breaking hadronic tau decay sum rules using weights designed to bring under better control problems associated with the slow convergence of the relevant D=2 OPE series.…
In a previous paper we performed an analysis of asymptotic structure of perturbation theory series for semileptonic $\tau$-lepton decays in massless limit. We extend our analysis to the Cabibbo suppressed $\Delta S=1$ decay modes of the…
The Michel parameters of the leptonic tau decays are measured using the OPAL detector at LEP. The Michel parameters are extracted from the energy spectra of the charged decay leptons and from their energy-energy correlations. A new method…
Neutral-current semileptonic $B$ decays are plagued by hadronic resonances across the dilepton invariant-mass squared spectrum, $q^2$. For light leptons, $\ell=e,\mu$, these resonances can be avoided with suitable $q^2$ cuts. This strategy…
We reevaluate the hadronic contribution to the running of the QED fine structure constant alpha(s) at s = M_Z^2. We use data from e+e- annihilation and tau decays at low energy and at the qq-bar thresholds, where resonances occur. Using…
The results of a search for charged Higgs bosons decaying to a $\tau$ lepton and a neutrino, $H^{\pm} \rightarrow \tau^{\pm} \nu$, are presented. The analysis is based on 19.5 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV…
In this article we review the results of our recent work on the difference between the Borel representations of tau hadronic spectral function moments obtained with the CIPT and FOPT methods. For the presentation of the theoretical results…
