چکیده

Non-relativistic QCD is applied for a lattice computation of the heavy-light meson decay constant in quenched approximation at β = 6.0. Clear signals are obtained for the ground state at large times in the correlators, allowing a reliable extraction of the decay constant. Estimating the current renormalization factor by the tadpole improvement procedure, we find fB = 164(17) MeV for the B meson with a −1 = 2.3 GeV, while an extrapolation to the static limit yields fstatic B = 247(26) MeV.

Heavy-Light Mesons with Quenched Lattice NRQCD: Results on Decay Constants

We present a quenched lattice calculation of heavy-light meson decay constants, using non-relativistic (NRQCD) heavy quarks in the mass region of the b quark and heavier, and clover-improved light quarks. The NRQCD Hamiltonian and the heavy-light current include the corrections at first order in the expansion in the inverse heavy quark mass. We study the dependence of the decay constants on the...

B Decay Constants from NRQCD with Dynamical Fermions

We present a lattice investigation of the heavy-light meson decay constants using Wilson light quarks and NRQCD heavy quarks, partially including the effects of dynamical sea quarks. We calculate the pseudoscalar and vector decay constants over a wide range in heavy quark mass and are able to perform a detailed analysis of heavy quark symmetry. We find consistency between the extrapolation of t...

Scaling and further tests of heavy meson decay constant determinations from nonrelativistic QCD

We present results for the B s meson decay constant f B s from simulations at three lattice spacings in the range a Ϫ1 ϭ1.1 to 2.6 GeV using NRQCD heavy quarks and clover light quarks in the quenched approximation. We study the scaling of this quantity and check the consistency between mesons decaying from rest and from a state with a nonzero spatial momentum. The cancellation of power law cont...

One-loop matching of heavy-light currents is carried out for a highly improved lattice action, including the effects of mixings with dimension 4 O(1/M) and O(a) operators. We use the NRQCD action for heavy quarks, the Asqtad improved naive action for light quarks, and the Symanzik improved glue action. These results are being used in recent heavy meson decay constant and semileptonic form facto...

Heavy-light physics using NRQCD-staggered actions

One leading source of uncertainty in the lattice computation of semi-leptonic form factors in B decay, and to a lesser extent B meson decay constants, comes from the extrapolation of the light quark mass to the physical up/down mass. This talk presents first explorations of simulating the light quark with staggered fermion actions, which are free of the spurious zero modes that effect Wilson-li...
