Heavy Quarks at Threshold: Recent Developments

نویسنده

  • Matthias Steinhauser
چکیده

Recent developments in the treatment of a system of heavy quarks close to their production threshold are discussed. Particular emphasis is put on the next-to-nextto-next-to-leading order (NLO) corrections to the energy levels and the wave function and their effect on the cross section σ(ee → tt̄). Furthermore, the resummation of logarithmic corrections within the framework of potential nonrelativistic QCD (pNRQCD) are considered.

Lattice studies of hadrons with heavy flavors

I will discuss recent developments in lattice studies of hadrons composed of heavy quarks. I will mostly cover topics which are at a state of direct comparison with experiment, but will also discuss new ideas and promising techniques to aid future studies of lattice heavy quark physics.

Recent Developments in the Theory of Heavy Quarks

Recent developments in the theory of heavy quarks are reviewed. In the area of heavy quark fragmentation, there has been progress in the study of both pertubative and nonperturbative processes, including the identification of new observable nonperturbative fragmentation parameters. There has also been considerable theoretical activity in the study of inclusive rare and semileptonic decays of bo...

Heavy Flavours at Colliders

I review some topics in the production and decays of heavy flavours that are relevant for collider physics. In particular, I discuss the present status and some recent progress related to masses, parton densities and fragmentation functions of heavy quarks, as well as threshold resummation, polarized onium production at high transverse momentum, and a factorization theorem for B → ππ decays.

Heavy - Quark Form Factors and Threshold Cross Section at O ( α 2 S )

the vector, axial-vector, scalar and pseudo-scalar vertices involving a pair of heavy quarks, QQ̄, were calculated. The results are valid for arbitrary momentum transfer and mass of the heavy quarks. These form factors have a number of applications, including anomalous couplings, the e+e− → QQ̄ cross section, and the forward-backward asymmetry of heavy quarks. Here the QQ̄ threshold cross section ...

Theoretical Summary of Moriond 2004: Qcd and Hadronic Interactions

Theoretical talks and discussions at Rencontres de Moriond 2004 " QCD and Hadronic Interactions " are summarized. Following exciting recent experimental discoveries, theoretical developments were reported in the description of heavy ion collisions, light hadron spectroscopy, and the physics of hadrons containing heavy quarks. Some of the predictions have already been tested by subsequent experi...
