QCD field strength correlator at the next-to-leading order
The gauge invariant two-point correlation function of the gauge field strength tensor is calculated in perturbation theory at the next-to-leading order. Besides a direct calculation in perturbative QCD we also present a derivation of the correlation function in the heavy quark effective theory. Our results are briefly compared with recent determinations of the field strength correlator on the lattice.
