B decays in the upsilon expansion
Andre H. Hoang, Zoltan Ligeti, Aneesh V. Manohar
Theoretical predictions for B decay rates are rewritten in terms of the Upsilon(1S) meson mass instead of the b quark mass, using a modified perturbation expansion. The theoretical…
Applications of Perturbative NRQCD
A. H. Hoang
We review the theoretical ideas and tools required to arrive at a next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) description of the heavy quark-antiquark production cross section in …
B decay and the Upsilon mass
Andre H. Hoang, Zoltan Ligeti, Aneesh V. Manohar
Theoretical predictions for inclusive semileptonic B decay rates are rewritten in terms of the Upsilon(1S) meson mass instead of the b quark mass, using a modified perturbation exp…
Quarkonia and the Pole Mass
A. H. Hoang, M. C. Smith, T. Stelzer +1
The pole mass of a heavy quark is ambiguous by an amount of order . We show that the heavy-quark potential, , is similarly ambiguous, but that the total static energ…
Bottom Quark Mass from Upsilon Mesons
A. H. Hoang
The bottom quark pole mass is determined using a sum rule which relates the masses and the electronic decay widths of the mesons to large moments of the vacuum polari…
Top Quark Pair Production at Threshold: Complete Next-to-next-to-leading Order Relativistic Corrections
A. H. Hoang, T. Teubner
The complete next-to-next-to-leading order (i.e. , and ) relativistic corrections to the total photon mediated production cross section at th…
