Nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD): the modern effective field theory to tackle heavy quarkonium Caswell, Lepage (1986); Bodwin, Braaten, Lepage (1995) This scale separation is usually referred to as NRQCD factorization. The NRQCD short-dist. coefficients can be computed in perturbation theory, order by order
production at hadron colliders …… NRQCD gains popularity in quarkonium physics (see Brambilla et al. EPJC 2011 for a recent review) Nowadays, NRQCD becomes an important approach to tackle various quarkonium production and decay processes charmonium: bottomonium: Exemplified by at B factories production at hadron colliders ……
The underlying problems Most of the NRQCD successes based on the NLO QCD predictions. However, the NLO QCD corrections are often large: Zhang et.al. Gong et.al. Campbell et.al. Mackenzie et.al. … …
Question: How about the convergence of the QCD correction? So calculating the higher order QCD correction is very necessary to test NRQCD predictions!

Investigation on γγ* ηc form factor Previous investigation factorization: Feldmann et.al., Cao and Huang Lattice QCD: Dudek et.al., J/ψ -pole-dominance: Lees et.al., QCD sum rules: Lucha et.al., light-front quark model: Geng et.al., All yield predictions compatible with the data, at least in the small Q2 range. So far, so good. Unlike γγ* π0 , there is no open puzzle here
Investigation on γγ* ηc form factor Our motivations Model-independent method is always welcome. In the normalized form factor, nonperturbative NRQCD matrix element cancels. Therefore, our predictions are free from any freely adjustable parameters! Is LO NRQCD prediction enough? The momentum transferred is not large enough, we are not bothered by the large logarithmic resummation. Jia and Yang
