We propose a perturbative evaluation for the next-to-leading-order (NLO) $O(1/Q^4)$ power correction to the photon-pion transition form factor. The effects of the NLO power correction are analyzed.
A successful effective field theory program requires besides the most general effective Lagrangian a perturbative expansion scheme for observables in terms of a consistent power counting method. We discuss a renormalization scheme for…
The pion electromagnetic form factor F_{\pi}(Q^{2}) is calculated at the leading order of pQCD using the running coupling constant (\alpha_{S}(Q^{2}(1-x)(1-y))) approach. The resummed expression for F_{\pi}(Q^{2}) is found. It is shown that…

Non-factorizable effects on the color-suppressed $B\to D^{(*)}\pi$ decay modes are analyzed. Recent observations of $\Bbar^0\to D^{(*)0}\pi^0$ by Belle and CLEO strongly suggest that there exists a non-zero strong phase difference between…

In this paper, we study the properties of the pion-photon transition form factor (TFF), $\gamma\gamma^{\ast} \rightarrow \pi^{0}$, by using the principle of maximum commonality (PMC) to deal with its perturbative QCD contribution up to…
The $\alpha$-Brownian bridge, or scaled Brownian bridge, is a generalization of the Brownian bridge with a scaling parameter that determines how strong the force that pulls the process back to 0 is. The bias of the maximum likelihood…
Recent developments in the QCD description of the pion structure are reviewed. The CLEO pion-photon transition data analysis favors a distribution amplitude for the pion that is double-humped but endpoint-suppressed. After a short outline…
We develop a perturbative QCD factorization theorem which is compatible with effective field theory. The factorization involves three scales: an infrared cutoff of order $\Lambda_{\rm QCD}$, a hard scale of order the $B$ meson mass, and an…
