Renormalization of three-quark operators at two loops in the RI′/SMOM scheme

Abstract

We consider the renormalization of the three-quark operators without derivatives at next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD perturbation theory at the symmetric subtraction point. This allows us to obtain conversion factors between the MS‾ scheme and the regularization invariant symmetric MOM (RI/SMOM, RI′/SMOM) schemes. The results are presented both analytically in Rξ gauge in terms of a set of master integrals and numerically in Landau gauge. They can be used to reduce the errors in determinations of baryonic distribution amplitudes in lattice QCD simulations.
