In the case of supersymmetric QCD, we show that our $O(1/N_f)$ approximation displays an infra-red fixed point in the conformal window $3N_c/2 < N_f < 3N_c$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1997-05-15T17:00:26.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11.10.Gh", "11.15.Bt", "11.30.Pb", "11.15.Pg" ], "keywords": [ "supersymmetric gauge theories", "supersymmetric qcd", "approximation displays", "conformal window", "calculations" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Elsevier", "journal": "Nucl.
