چکیده

We calculate the Isgur-Wise function on the lattice, simulating the light quark with the Wilson action and the heavy quark with a direct lattice implementation of the heavy-quark effective theory. Improved smearing functions produced by a variational technique, most, are used to reduce the statistical errors and to minimize excited-state contamination of the ground-state signal. Calculating the required matching factors, we obtain ξ(1) = −0.64(13) for the slope of the Isgur-Wise function in continuum-HQET in the MS scheme at a scale of 4.0GeV.

Renormalization of the Lattice HQET Isgur-Wise Function

We compute the perturbative renormalization factors required to match to the continuum Isgur-Wise function, calculated using lattice Heavy Quark Effective Theory. The velocity, mass, wavefunction and current renormalizations are calculated for both the forward difference and backward difference actions for a variety of velocities. Subtleties are clarified regarding tadpole improvement, regulati...

Semileptonic Decays of Bottom and Charm Baryons within Relativistic Quark Model

The last few years have brought rapid development of the physics of hadrons composed of light quarks q (u, d and s) and heavy quarks Q (c or b). Heavy quarks are those whose masses satisfy the conditionmQ ≫ ΛQCD, where ΛQCD is the QCD scale parameter. Weak decays of heavy hadrons are a unique tool for determining the elements of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix, for studying phenomena lying...

Lattice analysis of semi-leptonic form factors∗

We present preliminary results from simulations done on 170 32×64 lattices at β = 6.0 using quenched Wilson fermions. This talk focuses on the Q behavior of the form-factors, extrapolation in quark masses, dependence on renormalization scheme, and comparison with heavy-quark effective theory (HQET). Even though we cannot estimate errors due to quenching and discretization, our results are consi...

Isgur-Wise Function on the Lattice

A very active subfield in high energy physics recently is the study of hadrons with heavy-light quark content [1]. A major effort has been spent in calculating the Isgur-Wise function, which, once it is determined, can be widely used in calculations of heavy meson decay (b → c) processes. After an initial exploration [2], calculations of the Isgur-Wise function on the lattice [3– 5] have quickl...

Isgur-wise Function in Relativistic Quark Model

Hadronic matrix elements are expressed in the framework of BS formalism, and in the limit of heavy quark mass mQ → ∞, we find that all form factors in processes of B → D weak transition can be incorporated into a single universal Isgur-Wise (I −W ) function ξ(v · v′), which was first discovered by Isgur and Wise in heavy quark effective theory (HQET). By introducing a phenomenological interacti...
