چکیده
I review the status of the calculations of the QCD static energy at short distances, including renormalization group and renormalon analysis. Applications to heavy quarkonium physics are briefly discussed. c Copyright owned by the author(s) under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike Licence.

The logarithmic contribution to the QCD static energy at NLO
Using pNRQCD and known results for the field strength correlator, we calculate the ultrasoft contribution to the QCD static energy of a quark-antiquark pair at short distances at N4LO in αs. At the same order, this provides the logarithmic terms of the singlet static potential in pNRQCD and the logαs terms of the static energy.
متن کاملStatic quark anti-quark free energy and the running coupling at finite temperature
We analyze the free energy of a static quark anti-quark pair in quenched QCD at short and large distances. From this we deduce running couplings, g(r, T ), and determine the length scale that separates at high temperature the short distance perturbative regime from the large distance nonperturbative regime in the QCD plasma phase. Ambiguities in the definition of a coupling beyond the perturbat...
متن کاملPrecision determination of r₀ΛMS from the QCD static energy.
We use the recently obtained theoretical expression for the complete QCD static energy at next-to-next-to-next-to leading-logarithmic accuracy to determine r₀ΛMS by comparison with available lattice data, where r₀ is the lattice scale and ΛMS is the QCD scale. We obtain r₀ΛMS=0.637(+0.032)(-0.030) [corrected] for the zero-flavor case. The procedure we describe can be directly used to obtain r₀Λ...

A striking contradiction between lattice short range static potential (n f = 0) and standard perturbative potential, observed in Ref. [18], is investigated in the framework of the background perturbation theory. With the use of the background coupling˜α B (r) which contains the only background parameter-mass m B , fixed by fine structure fit in bottomonium, the lattice data are nicely explained...
