摘要
We study the chiral critical behavior of QED using non-perturbative renormalization group (NPRG). Taking account of the non-ladder contributions, our flow equations are free from the gauge parameter alpha dependence. We clarify the chiral phase structure and calculate the anomalous dimension of <(psi)over bar>psi, which is enhanced compared to the ladder approximation. We find that the cutoff scheme dependence of the physical results is very small.
