We focus specifically on the reparametrization invariant (RPI) dilepton invariant mass q2 moments of the spectrum, which depend on a reduced set of HQE parameters. At this order, “intrinsic charm” (IC) contributions proportional to 1/mb3mc2\\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \\usepackage{amsmath} \\usepackage{wasysym} \\usepackage{amsfonts} \\usepackage{amssymb} \\usepackage{amsbsy} \\usepackage{mathrsfs} \\usepackage{upgreek} \\setlength{\\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \\begin{document}$$ 1/\\left({m}_b^3{m}_c^2\\right) $$\\end{document} enter, which are numerically expected to be sizeable. Using the “lowest-lying state saturation ansatz” (LLSA), we estimate the size of these contributions. Within this approximation, we observe a partial cancellation between the IC and the “genuine” 1/mb5\\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \\usepackage{amsmath} \\usepackage{wasysym} \\usepackage{amsfonts} \\usepackage{amssymb} \\usepackage{amsbsy} \\usepackage{mathrsfs} \\usepackage{upgreek} \\setlength{\\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \\begin{document}$$ 1/{m}_b^5 $$\\end{document} contributions, resulting in a small overall contribution.
