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…
We present a pedagogical introduction to NRQED (non-relativistic quantum electrodynamics). NRQED is an effective field theory that describes the interaction of non-relativistic, possibly composite, spin-half particle with the…
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…
NRQED approach to the fine and hyperfine structure corrections of order m$\alpha$ 6 and m$\alpha$ 6 (m/M)-Application to the hydrogen atom The NRQED approach is applied to the calculation of relativistic corrections to the fine and…
In T.Zhang, L.Xiao and R.Koniuk, Can. J. Phys. {\bf 70}, 670 (1992), a new method was developed to calculate energy levels in QED nonrelativistic bound states, up to order m \alpha^5. Whether or not this method could be used beyond this…
This is a pedagogical introduction to NRQED, a low enery approximation of QED which can be made to reproduce QED to an arbitrary precision. It is especially useful when applied to nonrelativistic bound states. We start by explaining why QED…
We discuss heavy quarkonium in the framework of pNRQCD, a QCD effective theory appropriate for the study of heavy quark bound systems.
The method of NRQED is an adaptation of QED to bound systems. While it is fully equivalent to QED, it enables us to explore the QED bound states systematically as an expansion in the fine structure constant $\alpha$ and velocity ($\sim…
We compute the next-to-leading, O(m alpha^5), contribution to the hyperfine splitting in positronium within the framework of NRQED. When applied to the ground state, our calculation reproduces known results, providing a further test of…
The vNRQCD Lagrangian for colored heavy scalar fields in the fundamental representation of QCD and the renormalization group analysis of the corresponding operators are presented. The results are an important ingredient for renormalization…
We complete the leading-log renormalization group scaling of the NRQCD Lagrangian at $O(1/m^2)$. The next-to-next-to-leading-log renormalization group scaling of the potential NRQCD Lagrangian (as far as the singlet is concerned) is also…
Nonrelativistic QED bound states are difficult to study because of the presence of at least three widely different scales: the masses, three-momenta ($p_i$) and kinetic energies ($K_i$) of the constituents. Nonrelativistic QED (NRQED), an…
A Lagrangean and a set of Feynman rules are presented for non-relativistic QFT's with manifest power counting in the heavy particle velocity $v$. A r\'egime is identified in which energies and momenta are of order $Mv$. It is neither…
As noticed in Ref.[1], the Ore-Powell's classical calculation of the o-Ps -> 3 gamma decay amplitude does not fulfill Low's theorem requirements for the low energy end of the photon spectrum. We reanalyze the implications of Low's theorem…
We derive Spinless Salpeter equation for the positronium using the NRQED Lagrangian. Consequently, we consider the Spinless Salpeter wavefunction instead of the Schrodinger wavefunction to show that the NRQED calculation can be done easier.…
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…
The charmonium and bottomonium mass spectra are investigated in potential nonrelativistic QCD (pNRQCD) with the heavy quark potential computed by lattice QCD simulations. The potential consists of a static potential and relativistic…
The photon spectrum in orthopositronium to 3 gamma decay is computed using effective field theory methods. For energetic photons, the spectrum agrees with the Ore-Powell result, but deviates from it when the photon energy is comparable to…
We analyze parity-violating nucleon-nucleon scattering at energies E<m_\pi^2/M using the effective field theory appropriate for this regime. The minimal Lagrangian for short-range parity-violating NN interactions is written in an operator…
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).
