IndisputableMonolith.Physics.QCDRGE.MassAnomalousDimension
This module defines the leading coefficient of the quark mass anomalous dimension in the MS-bar scheme and supplies the associated mass-ratio functions at one- and two-loop order. It is imported by the heavy-quark MS-bar scorecards and the scheme-reconciliation layer that converts RS structural masses to running masses. The module consists of constant definitions and algebraic identities that extend the two-loop alpha_s running imported from its sole dependency.
claimThe leading mass anomalous dimension coefficient is denoted $c_0$; the module also supplies the one-loop mass ratio $m(m_1)/m(m_2)$ and its two-loop extension together with the positive-definite variants evaluated at the anchor scale.
background
The module sits inside the QCD renormalization-group track for heavy quarks. It imports the two-loop alpha_s running whose doc-comment states that it extends the one-loop formula by the second beta-function coefficient b1. The local definitions (c0, c1, mass_ratio_leading, mass_ratio_two_loop, m_running, etc.) implement the standard expansion of the mass anomalous dimension gamma_m in powers of alpha_s. The setting is the MS-bar scheme with running between an RS anchor scale (typically M_Z) and the individual quark scales.
proof idea
This is a definition module, no proofs.
why it matters in Recognition Science
The module supplies the coefficient required by QuarkSchemeReconciliation to convert rs_mass_MeV to massAtAnchor and by the three MS-bar scorecards (charm, bottom, top) to place the RS rung predictions inside empirical bands after two-loop running. It therefore closes the loop between the structural phi-ladder masses and the PDG MS-bar values quoted in the downstream scorecards.
scope and limits
- Does not derive the anomalous dimension from a Lagrangian.
- Does not contain threshold-matching coefficients.
- Does not evaluate numerical running for specific quark flavors.
- Does not address higher than two-loop terms.
