By using the well measured effective coupling α_(s)^(g)1)(Q) defined from the Bjorken sum rules as a basis, we suggest a novel self-consistency way to fix the αs at all scales: The QCD light-front holographic model is adopted for its infrared behavior, and the fixed-order p QCD prediction under the principle of maximum conformality(PMC) is used for its high-energy behavior. Using the PMC scheme-and-scale independent perturbative series,and by transforming it into the one under the physical V scheme, we observe that a precise αs running behavior in both the perturbative and nonperturbative domains with a smooth transition from small to large scales can be achieved.展开更多
