Under assumption of singular behavior of invariant charge alpha_s(q^2) at q^2 sim 0 and of large q^2 behavior, corresponding to the perturbation theory up to four loops, a procedure is considered of smooth matching the beta-function at a…

We revisit the determination of alpha_s(m_tau) using a fit to inclusive tau hadronic spectral moments in light of (1) the recent calculation of the fourth-order perturbative coefficient K_4 in the expansion of the Adler function, (2) new…

We present results obtained from a study of the structure of hadronic events recorded by the L3 detector at various centre-of-mass energies. The distributions of event shape variables and the energy dependence of their mean values are…

We determine the uncertainty on the strong coupling alpha_S due to the experimental errors on the data fitted in global analysis of hard-scattering data, within the standard framework of leading-twist fixed-order collinear factorisation in…

We determine the strong coupling constant $\alpha_s$ from the static QCD potential by matching a theoretical calculation with a lattice QCD computation. We employ a new theoretical formulation based on the operator product expansion, in…

We use the available data on e+ e- -> hadrons to determine the value of the QED coupling at the Z pole. The inclusion of recent preliminary BES-II data in the analysis is found to reduce the ambiguity in the determination of the coupling,…

A novel method to extract the QCD coupling alpha_s from the energy evolution of the moments of the parton-to-hadron fragmentation functions at low fractional hadron momentum z, is presented. The evolution of the moments (multiplicity, peak,…

I will discuss the current status of the determination of $\alpha(m_Z)$ and $\alpha_s(m_Z)$.

The four-loop determination of the strong coupling from fully inclusive observables is reviewed. Special attention is given to the low-energy measurement extracted from the hadronic $\tau$ decay width. A recent exhaustive analysis of the…

Determinations of the strong coupling constant alpha_S at centre-of-mass energies of 192 through 202 GeV at LEP are presented. The energy evolution of alpha_S is in agreement with the prediction of QCD. The combined investigation of OPAL…

Motivated by recent preliminary results from the SLD Collaboration on the measurement of angle-dependent B-Bbar energy correlations in Z^0 -> b bbar events, we propose a class of observables that can be computed as a power expansion in the…

We have studied hadronic events from e+e- annihilation data at centre-of-mass energies from 91 to 209 GeV. We present distributions of event shape observables and their moments at each energy and compare with QCD Monte Carlo models. From…

The strong coupling $\alpha_s$ is extracted with high precision through fits to lattice-QCD data for the static energy. Our theoretical framework is based on R-improving the three-loop fixed-order prediction for the static energy: we remove…

The precision measurements of the strong coupling constant, alphas, and its energy-scale dependence carried out at HERA by the H1 and ZEUS Collaborations are reviewed. An average value of alphas(Mz) = 0.1186 +- 0.0011 (exp.) +- 0.0050 (th.)…

We estimate the QCD coupling constant from a lattice calculation of the bottomonium spectrum. The second order perturbative expansion of the plaquette expectation value is employed to determine alpha_S at a scale set by the 2S-1S and 1P-1S…

We determine the strong coupling constant $\alpha_s(M_Z)$ from the static QCD potential by matching a lattice result and a theoretical calculation. We use a new theoretical framework based on operator product expansion (OPE), where…

The measurement of the strong coupling alpha_S using hadronic event shape distributions measured with the OPAL detector at center-of-mass energies between 91 and 209 GeV is summarized. For this measurement hadronic event shape distributions…

We extract a set of values for the Gross-Llewellyn Smith sum rule at different values of 4-momentum transfer squared ($Q^{2}$), by combining revised CCFR neutrino data with data from other neutrino deep-inelastic scattering experiments for…

The precise value of the strong coupling $\alpha_s(m_{Z})$ at the $Z$-boson mass $m_{Z}$ is essential for high-energy phenomenology and precision tests of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). We present the status of a program targeting a $\sim…

We present two determinations of the strong coupling \(\alpha_s\). The first one is from the static energy at three-loop accuracy, and may be considered an update of earlier determinations by some of us. The new analysis includes new…
