Abstract

We extract a set of values for the Gross–Llewellyn Smith sum rule at different values of 4-momentum transfer squared ( Q2), by combining revised CCFR neutrino data with data from other neutrino deep-inelastic scattering experiments for 1<Q2<15GeV2/c2. A comparison with the order αs3 theoretical predictions yields a determination of αs at the scale of the Z-boson mass of 0.114±0.0120.009. This measurement provides a new and useful test of perturbative QCD at low Q2, because of the low uncertainties in the higher order calculations.Received 8 May 1998DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.81.3595©1998 American Physical Society
