3 Victor Frankenstein’s Idea of Science 2011.4.21 The Interdisciplinary Center for Theoretical Study, USTC 3  Modern Physics Understand the nature of the Universe qualitatively and quantitatively.  What can we do? Anatomy--approaching to the truth gradually Cut the body into pieces and study each part Stitch them together and hope for the best Scientist: Frankenstein To create the Frankenstein’s monster or an angel?

4 Beauty charmless decay 2011.4.21 The Interdisciplinary Center for Theoretical Study, USTC 4 Many scales Many couplings Many hadrons Difficulties : Strong interactions Way-out : Factorization

6 Questions to be answered  How to separate the contributions from the different scales?  How to establish the RGEs to resum the large logarithms?  How to estimate or compensate the loss due to the power corrections? 2011.4.21 The Interdisciplinary Center for Theoretical Study, USTC 6 Method of regions can help!

7 Integration by regions For a Feynman integral containing small parameters (multiple- scale problem) in dimensional regularization  Divide the space of the loop momenta into various regions and, in each region, expand the integrand into a Taylor series with respect to the parameters that are considered small there;  Integrate the integrand, expanded in the appropriate way in every region, over the whole integration domain of the loop momenta;  Add up all the expanded integrals in all regions, we reproduce the Taylor series of the original Feynman integral with respect to the small parameters exactly.  Finally, a multiple-scale problem is divided into single (less) scale problems. 2011.4.21 The Interdisciplinary Center for Theoretical Study, USTC 7

10 Dimensional regularization 2011.4.21 The Interdisciplinary Center for Theoretical Study, USTC 10  The expansion is valid up to any order of a;  The integral in each region is the function of only one scale and simpler than the original integral;  The factious divergence in each region is cancelled after adding up the contributions from large scale region and small scale region.

40 NRQCD factorization For single quarkonium production  : NRQCD operator with definite velocity power counting  multi-scale problem: Q>>m  stability of the perturbation: large log(Q/m) may need the resummation. 2011.4.21 The Interdisciplinary Center for Theoretical Study, USTC 40

41 Refactorization 2011.4.21 The Interdisciplinary Center for Theoretical Study, USTC 41 At the leading power of velocity,  The hard kernel is the same as the similar process in which the quarkonium is replaced by a flavor singlet light meson.  Since, the LCDA of bounded heavy quark and anti-quark can be calculated perturbatively. Ma and Si, PRD 2006; Bell and Feldmann, JHEP 2007;

42 Example: 2011.4.21 The Interdisciplinary Center for Theoretical Study, USTC 42 NRQCD factorization up to leading power of velocity: The short-distance contribution is parameterized as The equivalent computation is to calculate the on-shell heavy quark anti-quark pair with equal momentum and the same quantum number as the quarkonium.
