In the similar and more widely used modified minimal subtraction, or MS-bar scheme (MS¯), one absorbs the divergent part plus a universal constant that always arises along with the divergence in Feynman diagram calculations into the counterterms. When using dimensional regularization, i.e. d4p→μ4−dddp, it is implemented by rescaling the renormalization scale: μ2→μ2eγE4π, with γE the Euler–Mascheroni constant.
