It discusses the expansion of Feynman diagrams around the high-energy limit, followed by the explicit construction of the effective Lagrangian - first for a scalar theory, then for QCD. The underlying concepts are illustrated with the quark vector form factor at large momentum transfer, and the formalism is applied to compute soft-gluon resummation and to perform transverse-momentum resummation for the Drell-Yan process utilizing renormalization group evolution in SCET. Finally, the infrared structure of n-point gauge-theory amplitudes is analyzed by relating them to effective-theory operators. This text is suitable for graduate students and non-specialist researchers alike as it requires only basic knowledge of perturbative QCD. 410 0$aLecture Notes in Physics,$x1616-6361 ;$v896 606 $aParticles (Nuclear physics) 606 $aQuantum field theory 606 $aElementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory 615 0$aParticles (Nuclear physics) 615 0$aQuantum field theory. 615 14$aElementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory. 676 $a530.143 700 $aBecher$b Thomas$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0984129 702 $aBroggio$b Alessandro$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aFerroglia$b Andrea$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910131336603321 996 $aIntroduction to Soft-Collinear Effective Theory$92247671 997 $aUNINA
