RT Journal Article T1 Strong Running Coupling at τ and Z 0 Mass Scales from Lattice QCD A1 Blossier, B. A1 Boucaud, Ph. A1 Brinet, M. A1 Soto Borrero, Feliciano Carlos de A1 Du, X. A1 Morenas, V. A1 Pène, O. A1 Petrov, K. A1 Rodríguez Quintero, José AB This Letter reports on the first computation, from data obtained in lattice QCD with u, d, s, and c quarks in the sea, of the running strong coupling via the ghost-gluon coupling renormalized in the momentum-subtraction Taylor scheme. We provide readers with estimates of ¿MS¯¯¯¯¯¯(m2¿) and ¿MS¯¯¯¯¯¯(m2Z) in very good agreement with experimental results. Including a dynamical c quark makes the needed running of ¿MS¯¯¯¯¯¯ safer.
