When combined with present knowledge about the leading order coefficients, the results allow to calculate all coefficients appearing at order $1/m$ to next-to-leading order in renormalization-group improved perturbation theory. They also provide a meaningful definition of the velocity transfer variable $v\\cdot v'$ to order $1/m$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1993-02-17T19:22:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "heavy quark effective theory", "bilinear heavy quark currents", "short-distance coefficient functions", "coefficients appearing", "imposing reparametrization invariance" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "RevTeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 352783 } } }
