The results of evaluating the leading-order a,corrections to the correlatio
n function for tensor currents in pure gluodynamics are presented. These co
rrections to the parton result for the correlation function are not large n
umerically, which allows one to use perturbation theory to analyze the reso
nance spectrum within the sum-rule method. (C) 2000 MAIK "Nauka/Interperiod
