We study the application of the classical equations of motion (EOM) within the framework of an effective low-energy Lagrangian treated at the loop level. Gauge-fixing and ghost terms, which enter naturally in the EOM, are found to lead to no physical effects --- neither through operator mixing nor in matrix elements. Beyond first order in the effective interactions, contact terms have to be included when reducing the effective Lagrangian and we present an explicit procedure to construct them. Applied to (hadronic) rare B-decays, the EOM drastically simplify the effective Lagrangian and its matching to the underlying theory, and certain cancellations of large (logarithmic) contributions become more transparent. Finally, we discuss details of the `matching' of the effective Lagrangian, which may be helpful in incorporating short distance QCD corrections in further phenomenological studies.

Soft Collinear Effective Theory for Heavy QCD Axions
A new dimension-seven operator is generated by the gluon equation of motion in the presence of the axion-gluon coupling, and its spectator-scattering contribution to B to K a is roughly 25 percent of the soft-overlap ...
