A determination of alpha_s from scaling violations with truncated moments

arXiv:hep-ph/0211014 · doi:10.1016/S0920-5632(03)01810-3

Abstract

We describe a determination of the strong coupling alpha_s(M_Z) from scaling violations of the nonsinglet DIS structure function, which is based on two novel techniques aimed at controlling and minimizing the theoretical error: a neural network parametrization of BCDMS and NMC data, and QCD evolution by means of truncated Mellin moments.
