Quenched Chiral Corrections to Heavy-Light Decay Constants at Order 1/M

چکیده

Quenched chiral perturbation is used to study the decay constants for heavy-light mesons beyond the leading order in 1/M . The results are used to estimate the error in quenched lattice calculations of the decay constants. For the double ratio R1 = (fDs/fD)/(fBs/fB) we find that the error is small — conservatively 5%, but likely smaller. We also find that quenching decreases the ratio fDs/fD relative to the unquenched theory. PACS: 12.38.Gc, 12.39.Fe, 12.39.Hg

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...

Chiral Corrections to Vector Meson Decay Constants

We calculate the leading quark mass corrections of order mq log(mq), mq and m 3/2 q to the vector meson decay constants within Heavy Vector Meson Chiral Perturbation Theory. We discuss the issue of electromagnetic gauge invariance and the heavy mass expansion. Reasonably good fits to the observed decay constants are obtained.

Quenched Chiral Perturbation Theory

Partially quenched theories are theories in which the valenceand seaquark masses are different. In this paper we calculate the nonanalytic one-loop corrections of some physical quantities: the chiral condensate, weak decay constants, Goldstone boson masses, BK and the K + → π+π0 decay amplitude, using partially quenched chiral perturbation theory. Our results for weak decay constants and masses...

Decays on Finite Volumes and at Next-to-Leading Order in the Chiral Expansion

We present the ingredients necessary for the determination of physical K → ππ decay amplitudes for ∆I = 3/2 transitions, from lattice simulations at unphysical kinematics and the use of chiral perturbation theory at next-to-leading order. In particular we derive the expressions for the matrix elements I=2〈 ππ|OW |K〉, where OW is one of the operators appearing in the ∆S = 1 weak Hamiltonian, in ...

It has been proposed that partially quenched chiral perturbation theory can be used together with partially quenched lattice QCD to determine the low-energy constants of real QCD. We point out a complication of this approach and show how it can be resolved. Partial quenching changes the chiral symmetry group and introduces a new independent four-derivative operator. We explore the effects of th...
