Abstract
We discuss an effective action for heavy excited mesons interacting with light pseudoscalars and vector mesons that combines both chiral and heavy-quark symmetry. We estimate the axial-vector couplings, masses, and mixed axial-vector couplings of the excited mesons to order one in the heavy-quark mass. The general issue of reparametrization invariance in heavy-quark effective theories is also discussed.Keywords
