Within an effective field theory framework we study heavy-quark--antiquark systems with a typical distance between the heavy quark and the antiquark smaller than $1/\Lambda_{\rm QCD}$. A suitable definition of the potential is given within…
A potential model description of heavy quarkonium can be rigorously deduced from QCD under some circumstances. The potentials can be unambiguously related with Wilson loops with gluonic insertions, the spectral decomposition of which is a…
Heavy quark bound state systems, mesons and hybrids, are discussed in the framework of the QCD effective field theory called potential Non-Relativistic QCD.
We briefly review how nonrelativistic effective field theories give us a definition of the QCD potentials and a coherent field theory derived quantum mechanical scheme to calculate the properties of bound states made by two or more heavy…
The spin-dependent operators for heavy quarkonium hybrids have been recently obtained in a nonrelativistic effective field theory approach up to next-to-leading order in the heavy-quark mass expansion. In the effective field theory for…
We construct a nonrelativistic effective field theory description of heavy quarkonium hybrids from QCD. We identify the symmetries of the system made of a heavy quark, a heavy antiquark, and glue in the static limit. Corrections to this…

We review some recent developments on non-relativistic effective field theories for heavy quark-antiquark systems and how they can bring a well founded connection between QCD and potential models.
We systematically compute the effective short-range potentials arising from second order QCD-diagrams related to bound states of quarks, antiquarks, and gluons. Our formalism relies on the assumption that the exchanged gluons are massless,…
Within an effective field theory framework, we obtain an expression, with O(1/m^2) accuracy, for the energies of the gluonic excitations between heavy quarks, which holds beyond perturbation theory. For the singlet heavy quark--antiquark…
The model for hybrid excitations of the QCD string with quarks is presented starting from the perturbation theory in the nonperturbative background. The propagation of a system containing $q \bar q$-pair and gluon is considered. The…
We report on the calculation of the Quarkonium Hybrid masses for the $cg\bar{c}$, $bg\bar{c}$ and $bg\bar{b}$ systems~\cite{hbrpaper}. A QCD analog of the Born-Oppenheimer approximation including the $\Lambda$--doubling terms has been used.…
A comprehensive determination of the rich, low-lying spectrum of gluonic excitations in the presence of a static quark-antiquark pair is presented. Our results are obtained from several simulations on anisotropic lattices using an improved…
Heavy quarkonium hybrids are studied in an effective field theory framework. Coupled and uncoupled Schr\"odinger equations are obtained for different quantum numbers of the hybrid states. The results are discussed and compared to other…

We propose an effective field theory for heavy quark-antiquark bound states once the soft gluons have been integrated out. We also give new results for the matching between QCD (QED) and NRQCD (NRQED).
We study some general aspects of the formalism of potential NRQCD (pNRQCD), an effective field theory that deals with ultrasoft degrees of freedom in Heavy Quarkonium systems. Specific attention is paid to its effective Lagrangian that it…
In the framework of the QCD effective field theory called potential Non-Relativistic QCD, we explore quark-antiquark bound systems that may be dominated by the perturbative interaction and we discuss the extent of validity of such a…
