Recent progress in Lorentz-covariant quantum field theories of the nuclear many-body problem (quantum hadrodynamics or QHD) is discussed. The effective field theory studied here contains nucleons, pions, isoscalar scalar (\sigma) and vector…
This is the first part of lectures about effective field theories. Decoupling of heavy-particle loops is considered (heavy leptons in QED, heavy quarks in QCD).
We derive the low-energy electroweak effective lagrangian for the case of additional heavy, unmixed, sequential fermions. Present data still allow for the presence of a new quark and/or lepton doublet with masses greater than $M_Z/2$,…
We apply effective field theory techniques to study several heavy quark systems. The topics analysed include the singlet static QCD potential, anomalous dimensions in SCET and a comprehensive study of semi-inclusive radiative heavy…
I discuss effective field theories for heavy bound systems, particularly bound systems involving two heavy quarks. The emphasis is on the relevant concepts and on interesting physical applications and results.
In the lattice formulation of the Heavy Quark Effective Theory (LHQET), the classical velocity is renormalized. The origin of this renormalization is the reduction of Lorentz (or O(4)) invariance to (hyper)cubic invariance. The…
We describe a strategy for a non-perturbative computation of the b-quark mass to leading order in 1/m in the Heavy Quark Effective Theory (HQET). The approach avoids the perturbative subtraction of power law divergencies, and the continuum…
We develop the geometric formulation of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT). Using this approach we derive all-orders results in the $\sqrt{2 \langle H^\dagger H \rangle}/\Lambda$ expansion relevant for studies of electroweak…
The parity and time-reversal invariant effective lagrangian for a heavy fermion interacting with an abelian gauge field, i.e., NRQED, is constructed through order $1/M^4$. The implementation of Lorentz invariance in the effective theory…
Effective theories provide a powerful tool for testing the Standard Model and for searching for the effects of new physics in a model-independent manner. In general one assumes that the effects of new physics characterized by a high-energy…
I review recent progress in heavy quarkonium physics from an effective field theory perspective. In this unifying framework, I discuss advances in perturbative calculations for low-lying quarkonium observables and in lattice calculations…
derivation of the effective lagrangian for non-relativistic quantum chromodynamics and the heavy quarks effective field theory is given. Our calculation provides of a simple and systematic method of calculation of the full off shell…
We present a fully non-perturbative computation of the mass of the b-quark in the quenched approximation. Our strategy starts from the matching of HQET to QCD in a finite volume and finally relates the quark mass to the spin averaged mass…
Effective field theory (EFT) approaches are widely used at the LHC, such that it is important to study their validity, and ease of matching to specific new physics models. In this paper, we consider an extension of the SM in which a top…
A causal, non-Hermitian, renormalizable, local, unitary and Lorentz convariant formulation of Quantum Theory (QT) (= Quantum Mechanics (QM) and Quantum Field Theory (QFT)) is developed which is free of formalistic problems we face in the…
Effective Lagrangians were originally used only at the tree level as so-called phenomenological Lagrangians since they were in general non-renormalizable. Today they are treated as effective field theories valid below a characteristic…
Matrix elements of heavy-light flavor currents play an important role in modern particle physics and precise theory predictions are of interest for phenomenology. Heavy Quark Effective Theory (HQET) is a valuable tool to obtain such…
We report on the status of an ALPHA Collaboration project to extract quantities for B physics phenomenology from Nf=2 lattice simulations. The framework is Heavy Quark Effective Theory (HQET) expanded up to the first order of the inverse…
We present the three-loop QCD corrections to the quark chromomagnetic moment including two different nonzero masses. This is a necessary ingredient to obtain the corresponding corrections to the chromomagnetic coefficient in the Heavy Quark…
We formulate an effective theory for systems containing a heavy Majorana fermion, such as bound states of a long-lived gluino. This "Majorana HQET" has the same degrees of freedom as the well-studied Dirac HQET. It respects an emergent U(1)…
