QCD nonrelativistic effective field theories (NREFT) are the modern and most suitable frame to describe heavy quarkonium properties. In this talk I summarize few relevant concepts and some interesting physical applications of NREFT.
Magnetized neutron stars constitute a special class of compact objects harbouring gravitational fields that deviate strongly from the Newtonian weak field limit. Moreover strong electromagnetic fields anchored into the star give rise to…

Perturbative expansions of QCD observables in powers of $\alpha_s$ are believed to be asymptotic and non-Borel summable due to the existence of singularities in the Borel plane (renormalons). This fact is connected with the factorization of…
In this article we study, via analytical methods, $1/Q$ non-perturbative power corrections to event shape mean values, addressing in particular the question of their interplay with soft perturbative emissions. Specifically we point out that…
We investigate higher order effects in the nonrelativistic expansion of lattice QCD on the heavy-light meson decay constants and some other quantities in order to understand the truncation error of NRQCD. While our numerical results have…
