Abstract

We compute the quark-gluon vertex in quenched QCD, in the Landau gauge using an off-shell mean-field O(a)-improved fermion action. The running coupling is calculated in an `asymmetric' momentum subtraction scheme (MOM~). We obtain a crude estimate for LambdaMSbar=170+/-65 MeV, which is considerably lower than other determinations of this quantity. However, substantial systematic errors remain.
