COHERENT STATE APPROACH TO THE INFRA-RED BEHAVIOUR OF NON-ABELIAN GAUGE THEORIES

The infrared behaviour of matrix elements between coherent states of definite color is studied in non-abelian gauge theories. The matrix elements are shown to be finite to the lowest non-trivial order, and to all orders if the soft meson formula for real gluons holds to all orders. Factorization occurs in the fixed angle regime.
