Abstract

We consider a new form of analytical perturbation theory expansion in the massless SU(Nc) theory, for the nonsinglet part of the e+e-annihilation to hadrons Adler function Dns and of the Bjorken sum rule of the polarized lepton-hadron deep-inelastic scattering CnsBjp, and demonstrate its validity at the O(αs4)-level at least. It is a two-fold series in powers of the conformal anomaly and of SU(Nc) coupling αs. Explicit expressions are obtained for the {β}-expanded perturbation coefficients at O(αs4) level in MS¯ scheme, for both considered physical quantities. Comparisons of the terms in the {β}-expanded coefficients are made with the corresponding terms obtained by using extra gluino degrees of freedom, or skeleton-motivated expansion, or Rδ-scheme motivated expansion in the Principle of Maximal Conformality. Relations between terms of the {β}-expansion for the Dns- and CnsBjp-functions, which follow from the conformal symmetry limit and its violation, are presented. The relevance to the possible new analyses of the experimental data for the Adler function and Bjorken sum rule is discussed.
