Mass Gap in Quantum Chromodynamics
We present a heuristic argument in support of the assertion that QCD will exhibit a mass gap, if the Callan-Symanzik function β(g) obeys the inequality β(g) < 0, for all g > 0. We begin by summarizing the standard lore attributed to QCD: (A) QCD must have a mass gap, i.e., every excitation above the vacuum state must have energy > △, where △ is a positive constant. The key idea that infrared sl...
متن کاملQuantum Chromodynamics
After a brief historical review of the emergence of QCD as the quantum field theory of strong interactions, the basic notions of colour and gauge invariance are introduced leading to the QCD Lagrangian. The second lecture is devoted to perturbative QCD, from tree-level processes to higher-order corrections in renormalized perturbation theory, including jet production in e + e − annihilation , h...
متن کاملQuantum Chromodynamics *
The classical Lagrangian of chromodynamics, its quantization in the perturbation theory framework, and renormalization form the subject of these lectures. Symmetries of the theory are discussed. The dependence of the coupling constant αs on the renormalization scale μ is considered in detail.
متن کاملFrom Moments to Functions in Quantum Chromodynamics
Single-scale quantities, like the QCD anomalous dimensions and Wilson coefficients, obey difference equations. Therefore their analytic form can be determined from a finite number of moments. We demonstrate this in an explicit calculation by establishing and solving large scale recursions by means of computer algebra for the anomalous dimensions and Wilson coefficients in unpolarized deeply ine...
متن کاملQuantum ChromoDynamics
These lectures on QCD stress the theoretical elements that underlie a wide range of phenomenological studies, particularly gauge invariance, renormalization, factorization and infrared safety. The three parts cover the basics of QCD, QCD at tree level and higher order corrections. Lectures given at the 2004 European School of High-Energy Physics, St. Feliu de Guı́xols, Barcelona, Spain, 30 May –...
