Gluon condensate effects on the fine structure of heavy quarkonium spectra

  • Published:

Abstract

We compute the effects of <G μν Gμν> condensate on the fine structure of 1S, 2S, 2P states in heavy quarkonium systems. Large perturbative corrections are found. The inapplicability of perturbation theory is a clear signal that models based on a random background field without any spatial cut-off are too naive to be reliable.
