From a global fit to the first thrust moment we extract the strong coupling and the leading power correction matrix element Omega(1). We obtain alpha(s)(m(Z)) = 0.1140 +/- (0.0004)(exp) +/- (0.0013)(hadr) +/- (0.0007)(pert), where the 1-sigma uncertainties are experimental, from hadronization (related to Omega(1)) and perturbative, respectively, and Omega(1) = 0.377 +/- (0.044)(exp) +/- (0.039)(pert) GeV. The nth thrust cumulants for n >= 2 are completely insensitive to Omega(1), and therefore a good instrument for extracting information on higher order power corrections, Omega{\textquoteright}(n)/Q(n), from moment data. We find ((Omega) over tilde {\textquoteright}2)(1/2) = 0.74 +/- (0.11)(exp) +/- (0.09)(pert) GeV.", optnote="WOS:000310500500005", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=1205), last updated on Tue, 11 Dec 2012 17:08:15 +0000", issn="1550-7998", doi="10.1103/PhysRevD.86.094002", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/arXiv:1204.5746", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.86.094002", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="arXiv:1204.5746", language="English" }
