Estimating the strong coupling from τ decay using accelerating series convergence

We apply the Euler transformation to accelerate the convergence of the QCD perturbative series with the aim to determine the strong coupling αs in terms of the total τ-decay rate rτ. The variation of the result with the order of the QCD perturbation theory is small and comparable with the uncertaint...
