abstract

We present the analytical $\alpha_{s}^3$ correction to the $Z^{0}$ decay rate into hadrons. We calculate this correction up to (and including) terms of the order $(m_Z^2/m_{top}^2)^3$ in the large top quark mass expansion. We rely on the technique of the large mass expansion of individual Feynman diagrams and treat its application in detail. We convert the obtained results of six flavour QCD to the results in the effective theory with five active flavours, checking the decoupling relation of the QCD coupling constant. We also derive the large charm quark mass expansion of the semihadronic $\tau$ lepton decay rate in the $\alpha_{s}^3$ approximation.

  1. IRC-safe jet flavour at leading power

    hep-ph 2025-11 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    Adding leading-power quark-mass effects makes standard anti-kT b-jet flavour tagging infrared-collinear-safe through NNLO without changing jet or flavour definitions, up to power corrections.

    Fits of combined KEDR and truncated BESIII data yield α_s(M_Z)=0.1179 (NLO), 0.1221 (NNLO), 0.1313 (N3LO), with the rise attributed to π² analytic-continuation effects.
