QCD traveling waves beyond leading logarithms
نویسنده
چکیده
We derive the asymptotic traveling-wave solutions of the nonlinear 1-dimensional BalitskyKovchegov QCD equation for rapidity evolution in momentum-space, with 1-loop running coupling constant and equipped with the Balitsky-Kovchegov-Kuraev-Lipatov kernel at next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy, conveniently regularized by different resummation schemes. Traveling waves allow to define “universality classes” of asymptotic solutions, i.e. independent of initial conditions and of the nonlinear damping. A dependence on the resummation scheme remains, which is analyzed in terms of geometric scaling properties.

Lifetimes of heavy hadrons beyond leading logarithms
The lifetime splitting between the B and B d mesons has recently been calculated in the next-to-leading order of QCD. These corrections are necessary for a reliable theoretical prediction, in particular for the meaningful use of hadronic matrix elements computed with lattice QCD. Using results from quenched lattice QCD we find τ (B)/τ (B d) = 1.053 ± 0.016 ± 0.017, where the uncertainties from ...
متن کاملB–Bd Lifetime Difference Beyond Leading Logarithms
We compute perturbative QCD corrections to the lifetime splitting between the charged and neutral B meson in the framework of the heavy quark expansion. These next-to-leading logarithmic corrections are necessary for a meaningful use of hadronic matrix elements of local operators from lattice gauge theory. We find the uncertainties associated with the choices of renormalization scale and scheme...
متن کاملSuper-leading logarithms in non-global observables in QCD
We report the discovery of super-leading logarithmic terms in non-global QCD observables. We use the 'gaps between jets' cross-section as a concrete example and illustrate that the new logarithms are intimately connected with the presence of Coulomb gluon contributions. We present some estimates of their likely phenomenological significance.
متن کاملCP asymmetry in flavour-specific B decays beyond leading logarithms
We compute next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the CP asymmetry afs = Im(Γ12/M12) in flavour-specific Bd,s decays such as Bd → Xlνl or Bs → D − s π . The corrections reduce the uncertainties associated with the choice of the renormalization scheme for the quark masses significantly. In the Standard Model we predict afs = −(4.4± 0.9)× 10 . As a by-product we also obtain the width difference...
متن کاملFactorization for hard exclusive electroproduction of mesons in QCD
We formulate and prove a QCD factorization theorem for hard exclusive electroproduction of mesons in QCD. The proof is valid for the leading power in Q and all logarithms. This generalizes previous work on vector meson production in the diffractive region of small x. The amplitude is expressed in terms of off-diagonal generalizations of the usual parton densities. The full theorem applies to al...
