Description

The Gross Llewellyn Smith sum rule has been measured at different values of four-momentum transfer squared (Q2) by combining the precise CCFR neutrino data with data from other deep-inelastic scattering experiments at lower values of Q2. A comparison with the Ο(αs3) predictions of perturbative QCD yields a determination of αs and its dependence on Q2 in the range 1 GeV2 < Q2 < 20 GeV2. Low Q2 tests have greater sensitivity to αs(MZ2) than high Q2 tests, since at low Q2 αs is large and changing rapidly. (author)
