We propose a model for the QCD running coupling constant based on the analytical inverse QCD coupling constant concept with an additional regularization in the low momentum region. Analyticity in the q2-complex plane, where q is the four-momentum transfer, is imposed by methods of the Analytic Perturbation Theory. The model incorporates a peculiar low-momentum behavior for αs(q2) as a divergence at q2=0 to retrieve color confinement, without spoiling its correct high-momentum behavior. This was achieved by means of a two-parameter regularization function, for which we considered three possible analytic expressions. In fact, within the framework of the Analytic Perturbation Theory, αs(q2) assumes a finite value for q2=0, at all perturbative orders (infrared stability), hence the infrared divergence cannot be implemented. For this reason, we found it more straightforward to work with its reciprocal, namely, εs(q2)=1/αs(q2), imposing its vanishing at the origin of the q2-complex plane via the multiplication of the aforementioned regularizing functions and the spectral density. Once the two free parameters of the regularization functions were settled by fitting to the experimental values of αs(q2) at the momenta where these data were available and reliable, the model could reproduce the QCD running coupling constant at any other momentum transferred. |
