We present results for the hadronic running of the electromagnetic coupling and the weak mixing angle from simulations of lattice QCD with Nf=2+1 flavours of O(a)-improved Wilson fermions. Using two different discretisations of the vector current, we compute the quark-connected and -disconnected contributions to the hadronic vacuum polarisation (HVP) functions Π¯γγ and Π¯Zγ for spacelike squared momenta Q2≤7 GeV2.
Our results are extrapolated to the physical point using ensembles at four lattice spacings, with pion masses ranging from 130 to 420 MeV.
We observe a tension of up to 3.5 standard deviations between our lattice results for Δα(5)had(−Q2) and estimates based on the R-ratio for space-like momenta in the range Q2=3−7GeV2. To obtain an estimate for Δα(5)had(M2Z), we employ the Euclidean split technique. The implications for comparison with global electroweak fits are assessed.
