Effective Heavy Quark Theory

Abstract

We show how heavy quark effective theory, including 1/M corrections, may be matched onto dynamical quark models by making a specific choice of K,m and v in the p=mv+K expansion. We note that Wigner rotations of heavy quark spins arise at O(p2/m2)O(p^2/m^2) in non-relativistic models but at O(ΛQCD/MQ)O(\Lambda_{QCD}/M_Q) or O(velocity-transfer) in HQET and so are necessary for a consistent treatment.
