22 Multipole Expansion and Ultrasoft - Collinear Factorization Multipole Expansion: (board) Field Redefinition: L (0) c = ξ n {n id us + gn A n + i /D c ξ n Y ξ n A n Y A n Y, gives: L (0) 1 } / n i /D c i n D c 2 ξ n usoft gluons have eikonal Feynman rules and induce eikonal propagators (board) L L ( ) ( Y (x) = P exp ig 0 [ ] [ ] n D us [ Y =0, Y Y ] =1 c = ξ } n/ n {n id us ξ n ξ { n n id c + id/ c ) ds n A us (x+ns) 1 } n/ id/ c i n D c 2 ξ n Moves all usoft gluons to operators, simplifies cancellations

23 Field Theory gives the same results pre- and post- field redefinition, { but the } organization { is different } Ultrasoft - Collinear Factorization: eg1. J = ( ξ n W ) ω Γh v ( ξ n Y Y W Y ) ω Γh v = ( ξ n W ) ω Γ(Y h v ) note: not upset by hard-collinear mometum fraction since ultrasoft gluons carry no hard momenta (board) so usoft-collinear factorization is also simply a property of SCET eg2.

Integrating this spectrum from 1.8 to 2.8 GeV, we obtain a partial branching fraction of ( 3.55 ± ) The systematic error contains the contribution from the fits to data/mc efficiency ratios (±5.9%) to which we add the following contributions in quadrature. The uncertainty on the number of B B events, which also affects the weight applied to OFF events, contributes ( )%. We estimate the error on the OFF data subtraction using the result of the fit to the spectrum above the endpoint. We integrate the resulting function in the GeV range and obtain a yield of +40 ± 160. We add ±200 to the systematic error (±0.8%). For the choice of the where polynomial functions in the data/mc efficiency ratio fits, we perform the same fit increasing the polynomial order by one.

30 SCET is a field theory which: explains how these degrees of freedom communicate with each other, and with hard interactions organizes the interactions in a series expansion in Λ QCD E provides a simple operator language to derive factorization theorems in fairly general circumstances eg. unifies the treatment of factorization for exclusive and inclusive QCD processes new symmetry constraints scale separation & decoupling n µ!

31 How is SCET used? cleanly separate short and long distance effects in QCD derive new factorization theorems find universal hadronic functions, exploit symmetries & relate different processes model independent, systematic expansion study power corrections keep track of µ dependence sum logarithms, reduce uncertainties The End
