We develop a new nonrelativistic effective field theory of $\rho$NRQCD [1] to describe the finite lifetime effects in the threshold production of top quark-antiquark pairs. The theory is based on the expansion in a parameter…

We present an effective field theory suitable to describe a non-relativistic particle-antiparticle pair of heavy scalars based on the gauge group SU(3). Its formulation is analogous to that of "velocity NRQCD" (vNRQCD), a non-relativistic…
Baryons made of two or three heavy quarks can be described in the modern language of non-relativistic effective field theories. These, besides allowing a rigorous treatment of the systems, provide new insight in the nature of the three-body…

Two complementary approaches to the theory of heavy quarkonia are discussed. The nonrelativistic potential models give amazingly accurate predictions, but lack a theoretical justification. The expansion in powers of $v/c$ is theoretically…
