We present a calculation of the hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment,
a
μ
hvp
, in lattice QCD employing dynamical up and down quarks. We focus on ...controlling the infrared regime of the vacuum polarization function. To this end we employ several complementary approaches, including Padé fits, time moments and the time-momentum representation. We correct our results for finite-volume effects by combining the Gounaris-Sakurai parameterization of the timelike pion form factor with the Lüscher formalism. On a subset of our ensembles we have derived an upper bound on the magnitude of quark-disconnected diagrams and found that they decrease the estimate for
a
μ
hvp
by at most 2%. Our final result is

We present results of calculations of the hadronic vacuum polarisation contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment. Specifically, we focus on controlling the infrared regime of the vacuum ...polarisation function. Our results are corrected for finite-size effects by combining the Gounaris-Sakurai parameterisation of the timelike pion form factor with the Lüscher formalism. The impact of quark-disconnected diagrams and the precision of the scale determination is discussed and included in our final result in two-flavour QCD, which carries an overall uncertainty of 6%. We present preliminary results computed on ensembles with
N
f
= 2 + 1 dynamical flavours and discuss how the long-distance contribution can be accurately constrained by a dedicated spectrum calculation in the iso-vector channel.
We present a non-perturbative computation of the running of the coupling
α
s
in QCD with two flavors of dynamical fermions in the Schrödinger functional scheme. We improve our previous results by a ...reliable continuum extrapolation. The
Λ-parameter characterizing the high-energy running is related to the value of the coupling at low energy in the continuum limit. An estimate of
