7 Mar 2005 | Journal: | Phys.Rev.Lett. 95 (2005) 052002 | Subject: | hep-lat hep-ph | Abstract: | We obtain a new value for the QCD coupling constant by combining lattice QCD simulations with experimental data for hadron masses. Our lattice analysis is the first to: 1) include vacuum polarization effects from all three light-quark flavors (using MILC configurations); 2) include third-order terms in perturbation theory; 3) systematically estimate fourth and higher-order terms; 4) use an unambiguous lattice spacing; and 5) use an $order(a^2)$-accurate QCD action. We use 28~different (but related) short-distance quantities to obtain $alpha_{ar{mathrm{MS}}}^{(5)}(M_Z) = 0.1170(12)$. | Source: | arXiv, hep-lat/0503005 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
