Strong-coupling constant with flavor thresholds at five loops in the modified minimal-subtraction scheme.

We present in analytic form the matching conditions for the strong-coupling constant alphas(nf) (mu) at the flavor thresholds to four loops in the modified minimal-subtraction scheme. Taking into account the present knowledge on the coefficient beta4 of the Callan-Symanzik beta function of quantum chromodynamics, we thus derive a five-loop formula for alphas(nf) (mu) together with appropriate relationships between the asymptotic scale parameters Lamda(nf) for different numbers of flavors nf.

B0-B(-)0 mixing beyond factorization in QCD sum rules.

We present a calculation of the B0-B(-)0 mixing matrix element in the framework of QCD sum rules for three-point functions. We compute alpha(s) corrections to a three-point function at the three-loop level in QCD perturbation theory, which allows one to extract the matrix element with next-to-leading order (NLO) accuracy. This calculation is imperative for a consistent evaluation of experimentally measured mixing parameters since the coefficient functions of the effective Hamiltonian for B0-B(-)0 mixing are known at NLO. We find that radiative corrections violate factorization at NLO; this violation is under full control and amounts to 10%. The resulting value of the B parameter is found to be B(B)(m(b))=1+0.1(PT)-0.05(non-PT).
