相关论文: The Infrared Boundary of Perturbative QCD
A mass scale $\mu_c$ representing the boundary between effective theories of strong interactions and perturbative QCD (infrared and ultraviolet regimes) exists when the $\beta$-function is characterized by a simple pole. This behaviour,…
It is shown that analytic properties of standard QCD perturbation theory contradict known spectral properties,and contain in particular IR generated ghost poles and cuts. As an outcome the rigorous background perturbation theory is…
We present a specific class of models for an infrared-finite analytic QCD coupling, such that at large space-like energy scales the coupling differs from the perturbative one by less than any inverse power of the energy scale. This…
This is a brief review of some of the basic concepts of perturbative QCD, including infrared safety and factorization, relating them to more familiar ideas from quantum mechanics and relativity. It is intended to offer perspective on…
Perturbative QCD, when optimized by the principle of minimal sensitivity at fourth order, yields finite results for R(e+e-)(Q) down to Q=0. For two massless flavours (n_f=2) this occurs because the couplant "freezes" at a fixed point of the…
The perturbative expression of the running strong coupling constant \alpha_{\rm s}(Q^{2}) has an unphysical singularity for Q^{2} = \Lambda^{2}_{\rm QCD}. Various modification have been proposed for the infrared region. The effect of some…
Using the global properties of the QCD partition function we determine an all order perturbative beta function in the background gauge field method to find out that it has a simple expressions whose properties and consequences align with…
The definition of the quark-antiquark static potential is given within an effective field theory framework. The leading infrared divergences of the static singlet potential in perturbation theory are explicitly calculated.
Infrared divergences in the perturbative expansion of gauge theory amplitudes and cross sections have been a focus of theoretical investigations for almost a century. New insights still continue to emerge, as higher perturbative orders are…
These lecture notes focus on the bound state sector of QCD. Motivated by data which suggests that the strong coupling \alpha_s(Q) freezes at low Q, and by similarities between the spectra of hadrons and atoms, I discuss if and how QCD bound…
Perturbative aspects of ultraviolet and infrared dynamics of noncommutative quantum field theory is examined in detail. It is observed that high loop momentum contribution to the nonplanar diagram develops a new infrared singularity with…
The perturbation theory in QED used the new form of ground state as a state of interacted particles is proposed. The mean electromagnetic field of charged elementary particle is calculated. The possibility of elimination the problem with…
Perturbative expansion in the nonperturbative confining QCD background is formulated. The properly renormalized $\alpha_S(R)$ is shown to be finite at large distances, with the string tension playing the role of an infrared regulator. The…
It is widely believed that the pole mass of a quark is infrared-finite and gauge-independent to all orders in perturbation theory. This seems not to have been proved in the literature. A proof is provided here.
The standard model of strong interactions invokes the quantum chromodynamics (QCD) of quarks and gluons interacting within a fluid. At sufficiently small length scales, the effective interactions between the color charged particles within…
Infrared safe differential cross sections, such as event shape distributions, can be measured over wide kinematic ranges, from regions where fixed order calculations are adequate to regions where nonperturbative dynamics dominate. Such…
A physical characterization of Landau singularities is emphasized, which should trace the lower boundary N_f^* of the conformal window in QCD and supersymmetric QCD. A natural way to disentangle ``perturbative'' from ``non-perturbative''…
In our world the standard model of particle physics contains within it the fairly intractable theory called QCD. A toy version with two colours is often studied as a model confining and chiral symmetry breaking field theory. Here we…
Standard power-behaved contributions in QCD arising from non-perturbative effects at low scale can be described, as shown by Dokshitzer, Marchesini and Webber, with the notion of an infrared regular effective coupling. In their approach, a…
Nonperturbative studies of the strong running coupling constant in the infrared region are discussed. Starting from the analyses of the Dyson -- Schwinger equations in the gauge sector of QCD, the conclusion is made on an incomplete fixing…
