Scaling at short distances and the behavior of $R(s)$ as $s\to\infty$
A. V. Kudinov, K. G. Chetyrkin
Abstract:
It is shown that scaling behavior at short distances of the $c$-number part of the
commutator of the hadronic electromagnetic current does not in general entail
asymptotic constancy of the branching ratio
$$
R(s)\equiv\sigma(e^-e^+\tohadrons)/ \sigma(e^-e^+\to\mu^-\mu^+),
$$
$s=(p_{e^-}+p_{e^+})^2$ at large $s$. It is found that the structure of the leading singularity of the current commutator near the light cone is directly related to the asymptotic behavior of the function
$$
\displaystyle\langle R\rangle(s)\equiv s^{-1}\int_{4m_\pi^2}^sR(s')\,ds'
$$
as $s\to\infty$.
