Higher Moments of Heavy Quark Correlators in the Low Energy Limit at O ( α 2 s )

نویسنده

چکیده

We present the first 30 moments of the low energy expansions of the vector, axialvector, scalar and pseudo-scalar heavy quark correlation functions at three-loop order, including the singlet contribution which appears for the first time at three loops. In addition we compare the behavior of the moments for large n with the prediction from threshold calculations.

Heavy quark induced effective action for gauge fields in the SU ( N c ) ⊗ U ( 1 ) model and the low - energy structure of heavy quark current correlators

Heavy quark induced effective action for gauge fields in the SU (N c) ⊗ U (1) model and the low-energy structure of heavy quark current correlators Abstract We calculate the low-energy limit of heavy quark current correlators within an expansion in the inverse heavy quark mass. The induced low-energy currents built from the gluon fields corresponding to the initial heavy quark currents are obta...

Low energy moments of heavy quark current correlators at four loops

We describe several techniques for the calculation of multi-loop integrals and their application to heavy quark current correlators. As new results, we present the fourloop correction to the second and third physical moment in the low-energy expansions of vector, axial-vector and scalar quark current correlators. Using a Ward identity, we obtain the third and fourth moment for the pseudo-scalar...

Multiplicity difference correlators under first-order QGP phase transition

The multiplicity difference correlators between two well-separated bins in high-energy heavy-ion collisions are studied as a means to detect evidence of a first-order quark-hadron phase transition. Analytical expressions for the scaled factorial moments of multiplicity difference distribution are obtained for small bin size δ with mean multiplicity in the bin s ≤ 1.0 within Ginzburg-Landau desc...

Heavy quark production in high-energy proton-nucleus (pA) collisions is described in the framework of the Color Glass Condensate. k ⊥ factorization is broken even at leading order albeit a more general factorization in pA holds at this order in terms of 2, 3 and 4 point correlators of Wilson lines in the nuclear target. The x-evolution of these correlators is computed in the large A and large N...

Heavy-quark masses from low-energy moments of heavy-quark currents

We present the newest results for the determination of heavy-quark masses from low-energy moments of the vacuum polarization function. The results presented here update an earlier determination of the quark masses and incorporate new theoretical calculations of the low-energy moments of the vacuum polarization and new experimental data at the bottom threshold.
