Non-relativistic bound state theories for QED and QCD have become fairly mature and amenable to a textbook-level understanding and computation. In this talk we give an introductory review of the following subjects related to the recent…

We review a lattice strategy how to non-perturbatively determine the coefficients in the HQET expansion of all components of the heavy-light axial and vector currents, including 1/m_h-corrections. We also discuss recent preliminary results…
We construct the interpolating currents for the fourteen p-wave excited heavy baryons in the framework of heavy quark effective theory (HQET). At the leading order in the 1/m_Q expansion these interpolating currents do not mix different…

Differential equations for the one-loop HQET vertex diagram with arbitrary self-energy insertions and arbitrary residual energies are reduced to the $\varepsilon$ form and used to obtain the $\varepsilon$ expansion in terms of Goncharov…
The heavy quark effective field theory (HQEFT) containing both effective `quark fields' and `antiquark fields' is investigated in detail. By integrating out (but not neglecting) the effective antiquark fields, we present a new formulation…
