A Comparative Analysis of Quantum Chromodynamics Computation Techniques: Lattice Gauge Theory vs. Perturbative Methods

Abstract

In this study, we explore two prominent quantum chromodynamics (QCD) computation techniques: Lattice Gauge Theory and Perturbative Methods. These approaches serve distinct purposes in understanding the strong force that binds quarks and gluons within nucleons. By evaluating their theoretical foundations and computational efficiencies, we aim to determine their applicability in high-energy physics predictions. Our findings indicate nuanced advantages for each method, depending on specific research constraints, thus contributing valuable insights into ongoing particle physics inquiries.
