QCD glueball sum rules and vacuum topology

arXiv:hep-ph/0608071 · doi:10.1142/9789812708267_0047

Abstract

Several key problems of QCD sum rules in the spin-0 glueball channels are resolved by implementing nonperturbative short-distance physics from direct instantons and topological charge screening. A lattice-based instanton size distribution and the IR renormalization of the nonperturbative Wilson coefficients are also introduced. Results of a comprehensive quantitative sum rule analysis are reviewed and their implications discussed.
