Collinear effective theory at subleading order and its application to heavy-light currents

Collinear effective theory at subleading order and its application to heavy-light currents

We consider a collinear effective theory of highly energetic quarks with energy E, interacting with collinear and soft gluons by integrating out collinear degrees of freedom to subleading order. The collinear effective theory offers a systematic expansion in power series of a small parameter lambda ~ p_{\perp}/E, where p_{\perp} is …
