The Impact

We discuss strong decays of positive and negative parity charmed mesons within heavy meson chiral perturbation theory and study the impact of excited charm states on the determination of the effective meson couplings. Motivated by recent experimental results we also reconsider semileptonic D → Plνl and D → Vlνl decays within a model which combines heavy quark symmetry and properties of the chiral Lagrangian. Using limits of soft collinear effective theory and heavy quark effective theory we parametrize the semileptonic form factors. We include excited charm meson states in our Lagrangian and determine their impact on the charm meson semileptonic form factors.

Heavy Quark Limit

The present study investigates the decay of B to heavy meson using the soft collinear effective theory. By assigning different loop momenta, the factorization has been tested and it is found to be valid to all orders in the perturbation theory. It is noted that theory contains one hard collinear and two soft modes depending upon virtuality of different momenta. In the next step, symmetry-conserving relations (in heavy quark limits) to the form factors have been studied. These relations are then used to parametrize the form factors to get symmetry-breaking corrections. These symmetry-breaking corrections can be calculated using perturbative (vertex corrections) as well as nonperturbative (hard spectator interactions) QCD. It is found that in the heavy quark limit, these symmetry contributions do not contribute to the form factors that appear in physical observables for the case of [Formula: see text] decays which are contrary to the heavy-to-light meson decays.

Abstract In soft-collinear effective theory, we analyze the structure of rapidity divergence due to the collinear and soft modes residing in disparate phase spaces. The idea of an effective theory is applied to a system of collinear modes with large rapidity and soft modes with small rapidity. The large-rapidity (collinear) modes are integrated out to obtain the effective theory for the small-rapidity (soft) modes. The full SCET with the collinear and soft modes should be matched onto the soft theory at the rapidity boundary, and the matching procedure becomes exactly the zero-bin subtraction. The large-rapidity region is out of reach for the soft mode, which results in the rapidity divergence. The rapidity divergence in the collinear sector comes from the zero-bin subtraction, which ensures the cancellation of the rapidity divergences from the soft and collinear sectors. In order to treat the rapidity divergence, we construct the rapidity regulators consistently for all the modes. They are generalized by assigning independent rapidity scales for different collinear directions. The soft regulator incorporates the correct directional dependence when the innate collinear directions are not back-to-back, which is discussed in the N-jet operator. As an application, we consider the Sudakov form factor for the back-to-back collinear current and the soft-collinear current, where the soft rapidity regulator for a soft quark is developed. We extend the analysis to the boosted heavy quark sector and exploit the delicacy with the presence of the heavy quark mass. We present the resummed results of large logarithms in the form factors for various currents with the light and the heavy quarks, employing the renormalization group evolution on the renormalization and the rapidity scales.

Suitable Framework

We construct a covariant field-theoretic model for the structure of a heavy meson in the heavy quark limit. This model overcomes the limitations caused by non-covariance in the light-front quark model, thus it is very useful for studying hadronic matrix elements at arbitrary momentum transfers. Furthermore, the model satisfies heavy quark symmetry and provides a suitable framework for the systematic evaluation of heavy quark symmetry breaking effects caused by 1/mQ corrections in the heavy quark effective theory of QCD. The Isgur–Wise function, the decay constant, and the axial-vector coupling constant are calculated, and physically realistic results are obtained.

Static Order

We compute semi-leptonic Bs decay form factors using Heavy Quark Effective Theory on the lattice. To obtain good control of the 1 /mb expansion, one has to take into account not only the leading static order but also the terms arising at O (1/mb): kinetic, spin and current insertions. We show results for these terms calculated through the ratio method, using our prior results for the static order. After combining them with non-perturbative HQET parameters they can be continuum-extrapolated to give the QCD form factor correct up to O (1/[see formula in PDF]) corrections and without O (αs(mb)n) corrections.
