Infrared effects and the asymptotics of perturbation theory in weak decays of heavy particles

Abstract

I discuss the interplay of infrared sensitivity in large order perturbative expansions with the presence of explicit nonperturbative corrections in the context of heavy quark expansions. The main focus is on inclusive decays and the status of the kinetic energy of the heavy quark. This talk summarizes work done with Braun and Zakharov.
