Decoupling of heavy quarks in HQET
نویسندگان
چکیده
Decoupling of c-quark loops in b-quark HQET is considered. The decoupling coefficients for the HQET heavy-quark field and the heavy–light quark current are calculated with the three-loop accuracy. The last result can be used to improve the accuracy of extracting fB from HQET lattice simulations (without c-quark loops). The decoupling coefficient for the flavour-nonsinglet QCD current with n antisymmetrized γ-matrices is also obtained at three loops; the result for the tensor current (n = 2) is new.

B decays to excited charm mesons
The spectroscopy of hadrons containing one heavy quark Q, in the infinite mQ limit, is simplified by the decoupling of the heavy quark spin ~sQ from the angular momentum of the light degrees of freedom (quarks and gluons) ~sl = ~ J − ~sQ. In this heavy quark theory (HQET) the states are classified by both ~ J and ~sl, and the hadrons corresponding to the same sl belong to degenerate doublets. I...
متن کاملHeavy - light current correlators at order α 2 s in QCD and HQET
The non-diagonal correlators of vector and scalar currents are considered at threeloop order in QCD. The full mass dependence is computed in the case where one of the quarks is massless and the other one carries mass M . We exploit the decoupling relations between the full theory and the heavy quark effective theory (HQET) in order to obtain the logarithmic parts of the leading threshold terms....
متن کاملMatrix elements of four-fermion operators in the HQET
The B-B̄ mixing, B-meson lifetimes, the Bs-B̄s lifetime difference and SUSY FCNC effects in ∆B = 2 processes are very important measurable quantities in B-meson phenomenology whose theoretical predictions depend on unknown matrix elements of several four–fermion operators. We present preliminary results for the matrix elements of the relevant four–fermion operators computed on a sample of 600 lat...

The mass spectrum of the L = 1 orbitally excited heavy baryons with light quarks in the spin-flavor symmetric representation is studied by the 1/Nc expansion method in the framework of the heavy quark effective theory. The mixing effect from the baryons in the mixed representation is considered. The general pattern of the spectrum is predicted which will be verified by the experiments in the ne...

Heavy quark productions in high energy polarized scatterings are reviewed from a personal point of view. After mentioning why heavy quark physics is so interesting, I concentrate on two rather specific subjects: (1) polarized Λc productions in deep inelastic lp scatterings and (2) ψ productions in polarized pp collisions. The first one is an interesting process for extracting the polarized gluo...
