Abstract: (Elsevier)
MCRG results are presented for the SU(3) β -function obtained from optimized blockspin transformations at β = 6.9 and 7.2. At both couplings for the shift Δβ , corresponding to a change of length scale by a factor 2, Δβ = 0.51 is found. Although the error is large, deviations from asymptotic scaling seem to be larger than expected on the basis of earlier calculations.
