An Effective field theory for collinear and soft gluons: Heavy to light decays

CW Bauer, S Fleming, D Pirjol, IW Stewart - Physical Review D, 2001 - APS
We construct the Lagrangian for an effective theory of highly energetic quarks with energy Q,
interacting with collinear and soft gluons. This theory has two low energy scales, the …

Soft-collinear factorization in effective field theory

CW Bauer, D Pirjol, IW Stewart - Physical Review D, 2002 - APS
The factorization of soft and ultrasoft gluons from collinear particles is shown at the level of
operators in an effective field theory. Exclusive hadronic factorization and inclusive partonic …
