Journal ArticleDOI
An Effective field theory for collinear and soft gluons: Heavy to light decays
TL;DR: In this paper, the Lagrangian was constructed for an effective theory of highly energetic quarks with energy Q, interacting with collinear and soft gluons, and the heavy to light currents were matched onto operators in the effective theory at one loop.
Journal ArticleDOI
Summing Sudakov logarithms in B-->X s γ in effective field theory
TL;DR: In this article, an effective field theory valid for processes in which highly energetic light-like particles interact with collinear and soft degrees of freedom, using the decay of the B meson near the end point of the photon spectrum, was constructed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hard scattering factorization from effective field theory
TL;DR: In this article, the soft-collinear effective theory is used to simplify proofs of factorization formulas in highly energetic hadronic processes, and the formalism is applicable to both exclusive and inclusive factorization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Color-Octet Fragmentation and the psi ' Surplus at the Fermilab Tevatron.
Eric Braaten,Sean Fleming +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors suggest that the dominant {psi}{prime} production mechanism is the fragmentation of a gluon into a {ital c{bar c}} pair in a point-like color-octet {ital S}-wave state, which subsequently evolves nonperturbatively into a ''psi} plus light hadrons''.
Journal ArticleDOI
Jets from massive unstable particles: Top-mass determination
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived a QCD factorization theorem for the top invariant mass spectrum using a sequence of effective field theories, connecting the production energy, mass, and top width scales, Q>>m>>Gamma.
