We resum distributions that are singular at partonic threshold (the elastic limit) in heavy quark production, in terms of logarithmic behavior in moment space. The method may be applied to a variety of cross sections sensitive to the edge…
We present a perturbative calculation of the renormalization constants for the $\Delta B=2$ four-quark operators, which is needed to evaluate the bag parameters $B_B$ and $B_S$ in lattice QCD. The one-loop coefficients are calculated for…
For Wilson and clover fermions traditional formulations of the axial vector current do not respect the continuum Ward identity which relates the divergence of that current to the pseudoscalar density. Here we propose to use a point-split or…
