Mini Workshop at Yukawa Institute for Theoretical Physics on

Perturbative and Non-perturbative Aspects in QCD

10:00 -- 15:00 on November 24 (Tuesday) 2009
Yukawa Institute for Theoretical Physics, K102 (1st floor)


Aim
There have been continuous interest in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) in the perturbative and non-perturbative regimes. The exact (or functional) renormalization group equation is a powerful tool to estimate the effective action in a non-perturbative manner, as well as other approaches such as the Lattice QCD simulations, the strong-coupling expansion of QCD, the holographic QCD models, etc. The traditional perturbative method has also developed recently with inclusion of highly non-linear effects, which leads to interesting phenomena of parton saturation. In this workshop these recent developments in QCD are discussed.
