Abstract
We complete the leading-log renormalization group scaling of the nonrelativistic (NRQCD) Lagrangian at
O
(

/
m

)
.
The next-to-next-to-leading-log renormalization group scaling of the potential NRQCD Lagrangian (as far as the singlet is concerned) is also obtained in the situation
m
α
s
≫
Λ
QCD
.
As a by-product, we obtain the heavy quarkonium spectrum with the same accuracy in the situation
m
α
2
s
≳
Λ
QCD
.
When
Λ

≪
m
α

s
,
this is equivalent to obtain the whole set of
O

terms in the heavy quarkonium spectrum. The implications of our results in the nonperturbative situation

are also mentioned.
