Resummation in Heavy Quark and Jet Cross Sections
We discuss corrections from the elastic limit (partonic threshold) in hadronic hard-scattering cross sections. We show why these corrections can be large at all orders in perturbation theory, and describe their resummation to arbitrary logarithmic accuracy. In particular, we discuss the role of color exchange in the hard scattering. This enables us to generalize the resummation of the Drell-Yan...
متن کاملImproved nonrelativistic QCD for heavy-quark physics.
We construct an improved version of nonrelativistic QCD for use in lattice simulations of heavy quark physics, with the goal of reducing systematic errors from all sources to below 10%. We develop power counting rules to assess the importance of the various operators in the action and compute all leading order corrections required by relativity and finite lattice spacing. We discuss radiative c...
متن کاملQCD resummation and heavy quark cross sections
of the Dissertation QCD resummation and heavy quark cross sections by Nikolaos Kidonakis Doctor of Philosophy in Physics State University of New York at Stony Brook 1996 In this dissertation a detailed analysis of heavy quark production is given with an emphasis on the resummation of soft gluon corrections. First we calculate the production cross sections for top quark production at the Fermila...
متن کاملHeavy Quark Effective Theory on the Light-Front
The light-front heavy quark effective theory is derived to all orders in 1/mQ. In the limit mQ → ∞, the theory exhibits the familiar heavy quark spinflavor symmetry. This new formalism permits a straightforward canonical quantization to all orders in 1/mQ; moreover, higher order terms have rather simple operator structures. The light-front heavy quark effective theory can serve as an useful fra...
متن کاملHeavy-quark Binding and Kinetic Energies in Heavy-light Mesons and the Constituent Quark Model
The spin-averaged binding energy and the hyperfine mass splitting of heavy-light mesons are investigated within the constituent quark model as a function of the inverse heavy-quark mass. It is shown that the so-called heavy-quark kinetic energy, −λ1/2mQ, may differ remarkably from the non-relativistic expectation 〈p〉/2mQ, thanks to relativistic effects in the effective interquark potential for ...
