We discuss the extraction of alpha_s using isovector hadronic tau decay data and sum rules constructed specifically to suppress contributions associated with poorly known higher dimension condensates. We show, first, that problems with the…
Determinations of the strong coupling strength, $\alpha_s$, are summarised and a new world average value of $\alpha_s (M_Z)$ is determined, using a new method of pre-averaging results within classes of measurements like hadronic $\tau$…
The formation of hadrons is a fundamental process in nature that can be investigated at particle colliders. Given their large mass, heavy quarks (charm and beauty) are produced only in initial hard-scatterings, prior to hadronisation, which…
Deep Inelastic Scattering would be brought into the unexplored TeV regime by the the proposed Large Hadron Electron Collider at CERN. Its rich physics program, includes both precision Standard Model measurements to complement LHC physics as…
Recent measurements of jet cross sections at HERA, the Tevatron and the LHC that provide constraints on parton distribution functions and allow for determinations of the strong coupling constant are presented.
The static energy is an excellent observable for extracting the strong coupling $\alpha_s$ on the lattice. For short distances, the static energy can be calculated both on the lattice using Wilson line correlators, and with perturbation…
An update of measurements of the strong coupling constant $\alpha_s$ is given, representing the status of September 2002. The results convincingly prove the energy dependence of $\alpha_s$ and are in excellent agreement with the…
The strong interaction among hadrons has been measured in the past by scattering experiments. Although this technique has been extremely successful in providing information about the nucleon-nucleon and pion-nucleon interactions, when…
The coupling of the strong force, $\alpha_s$, is deemed to be a fundamental parameter of Nature, and, beyond the quark masses, constitutes the only free parameter in the QCD Lagrangian. Provided is an overview of CERN Large Hadron Collider…
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.)…
An overview of precision determinations of the strong coupling constant, as well as the top, bottom and charm quark masses is presented.
A QCD model with an infinite number of vector mesons suggested by one of the authors is used to derive the value of the correction $\delta\alpha_{hadr}$ for $\alpha(m_{Z}^{2})$ due to the strong interactions. The result is…
The effective cross section of double parton scattering in high-energy hadron collisions has been measured in proton--proton collisions, with significant variation among final-state observables, contrary to the idea of a universal value.…
We present a determination of the nucleon parton distribution functions (PDFs) and of the strong coupling constant $\alpha_s$ at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in QCD based on the world data for deep-inelastic scattering and the…
We present a systematic study of uncertainties due to parton distributions and the strong coupling on the gluon-fusion production cross section of the Standard Model Higgs at the Tevatron and LHC colliders. We compare procedures and results…
We present a determination of the strong coupling constant from a fit of QCD predictions for six event-shape variables, calculated at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) and matched to resummation in the next-to-leading-logarithmic…
The prospects for a determination of the strong coupling constant $\alpha_s$ via scaling violations of fragmentation functions in deeply inelastic scattering are studied. The statistical error in the case of an integrated luminosity of $250…
We respond to some criticism questioning the validity of the current Standard Model Higgs exclusion limits at the Tevatron, due to the significant dependence of the dominant production cross section from gluon-gluon fusion on the choice of…
An estimate has been made of the masses of heavy hadrons in nonrelativistic quark model, which includes spin and flavor-dependent hyperfine splitting for two quarks. The effect of variation of the wavefunction value at origin and the strong…
The spectral functions of the vector current and the axial-vector current have been measured in hadronic tau decays using the OPAL detector at LEP. Within the framework of the Operator Product Expansion a simultaneous determination of the…
