Matching heavy-quark fields in QCD and HQET at three loops

الأصل · EN

The relation between the heavy-quark field in QCD and the corresponding field in HQET is derived up to three loops, and to all orders in the large-β₀ limit. The corresponding relation between the QED electron field and the Bloch--Nordsieck one is gauge invariant to all orders. We also prove that the MS anomalous dimension of the QED electron field depends on the gauge parameter only at one loop.
