The Operator Product Expansion, in conjunction with the power counting of non-relativistic field theory, is used to examine the end-point region of the radiative decay of heavy quark bound states with $^3S_1$ quantum numbers,…
We investigate the effects of colour-octet contributions to the radiative $\Upsilon$ decay within the Bodwin, Braaten and Lepage NRQCD factorization framework. Photons coming both from the coupling to hard processes (`direct') and by…

The standard NRQCD power counting breaks down and the OPE gives rise to color-octet shape functions at the upper endpoint of the photon energy spectrum in radiative Upsilon decay. Also in this kinematic regime, large Sudakov logarithms…
We determine color-octet nonrelativistic QCD matrix elements for quarkonium decays from moments of the two-point correlation function of the QCD field-strength tensor computed in the refined Gribov-Zwanziger theory. We find that a…
We consider the inclusive radiative decays quarkonium -> gamma + hadrons and examine the effects of soft QCD radiation on the photon energy spectrum near the endpoint.
Recent experiments by the CLEO III detector at CESR indicate that the $\jpsi$ spectrum produced in $\Upsilon$ decay is in conflict with Non-Relativistic QCD (NRQCD) calculations. The measured $\jpsi$ momentum distribution is much softer…

We derive the imaginary part of the potential NRQCD Hamiltonian up to order 1/m^4, when the typical momentum transfer between the heavy quarks is of the order of Lambda_{QCD} or greater, and the binding energy E much smaller than…
This study examines the properties of heavy quarkonia $X$ by treating them as bound states of $Q$ and $\bar{Q}$ at the LO level within the NRQCD framework, where $Q$ represents either a charm or a bottom quark. The branching ratios for the…
