The perturbative corrections of order αs to the coefficient functions of the operator product expansion for the baryonic correlator are calculated. These corrections change considerably the numerical values of the mass and residue for the proton extracted from the sum rules and improve the agreement between the theoretical estimates and experimental data.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
