Dispersive approach to QCD and inclusive tau lepton hadronic decay
arXiv:1306.4970 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.88.056009
Abstract
The dispersive approach to QCD is applied to the study of the inclusive tau lepton hadronic decay. This approach provides the unified integral representations for the hadronic vacuum polarization function, related R function, and Adler function. These representations account for the intrinsically nonperturbative constraints, which originate in the kinematic restrictions on the functions on hand, and retain the effects due to hadronization, which play a valuable role in the analysis of the strong interaction processes at low energies. The dispersive approach proves to be capable of describing recently updated ALEPH and OPAL experimental data on inclusive tau lepton hadronic decay in vector and axial-vector channels. The vicinity of values of the QCD scale parameter obtained in both channels testifies to the potential ability of the developed approach to describe the aforementioned data in a self-consistent way.
