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!

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

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;

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.

Summary Method of regions: Not mathematically proved, but no counter-examples so far. Intimately connected to the calculation of the matching coefficients in EFT. Advantages: Multiple scale problems simplified to single scale problems; Disadvantages: How to find the relevant regions?
