    Understanding the multiwavelength observation of Geminga's TeV halo: the role of anisotropic diffusion of particles

    Full text link
    In this letter we propose that the X-ray and the TeV observations in the vicinity of Geminga can be understood in the framework of anisotropic diffusion of injected electrons/positrons. This interpretation only requires the turbulence in the vicinity of Geminga to be sub-Alfv\'enic with the local mean magnetic field direction approximately aligned with our line of sight towards Geminga, without invoking extreme conditions for the environment, such as an extremely small diffusion coefficient and a weak magnetic field of strength <1μ<1\muG as suggested in previous literature.Comment: 7 pages, 4 figures, including Supplemental Material, PRL accepte

    Matching the B-meson quasidistribution amplitude in the RI/MOM scheme

    Full text link
    Within the framework of large momentum effective theory (LaMET), the light-cone distribution amplitude of BB-meson in heavy-quark effective theory (HQET) can be extracted from lattice calculations of quasidistribution amplitude through hard-collinear factorization formula. This quasiquantity can be renormalized in a regularization-independent momentum subtraction scheme (RI/MOM). In this work, we derive the matching coefficient which connects the renormalized quasiditribution amplitude in the RI/MOM scheme and standard LCDA in the MS‾\overline{\textrm{MS}} scheme at one-loop accuracy. Our numerical analysis approves of the feasibility of RI/MOM scheme for renormalizing BB-meson quasidistribution amplitude. These results will be crucial for exploring the partonic structure of heavy-quark hadrons.Comment: 19 pages, 4 figure

    We perform a study on the structure of the inverse moment (IM) of quasidistributions, by taking B-meson quasidistribution amplitude (quasi-DA) as an example. Based on a one-loop calculation, we derive the renormalization group equation and velocity evolution equation for the first IM of quasi-DA. We find that, in the large velocity limit, the first IM of B-meson quasi-DA can be factorized into IM as well as logarithmic moments of light-cone distribution amplitude (LCDA), accompanied by short distance coefficients. Our results can be useful either in understanding the patterns of perturbative matching in large momentum effective theory or evaluating inverse moment of B-meson LCDA on the lattice
