B-meson decay constants from 2+1-flavor lattice QCD with domain-wall light quarks and relativistic heavy quarks

Journal Article Christ, Norman H. ; Flynn, Jonathan M. ; Izubuchi, Taku ; ... - Physical Review. D, Particles, Fields, Gravitation and Cosmology

We calculate the B-meson decay constants f_B, f_Bs, and their ratio in unquenched lattice QCD using domain-wall light quarks and relativistic b-quarks. We use gauge-field ensembles generated by the RBC and UKQCD collaborations using the domain-wall fermion action and Iwasaki gauge action with three flavors of light dynamical quarks. We analyze data at two lattice spacings of a ≈ 0.11, 0.086 fm with unitary pion masses as light as M_π ≈ 290 MeV; this enables us to control the extrapolation to the physical light-quark masses and continuum. For the b-quarks we use the anisotropic clover action with the relativistic heavy-quarkmore »« less

Heavy-Quark Mass and Heavy-Meson Decay Constants from QCD Sum Rules

Journal Article Lucha, Wolfgang ; Melikhov, Dmitri ; Faculty of Physics, University of Vienna, Boltzmanngasse 5, A-1090 Vienna ; ... - AIP Conference Proceedings

We present a sum-rule extraction of decay constants of heavy mesons from the two-point correlator of heavy-light pseudoscalar currents. Our primary concern is to control the uncertainties of the decay constants, induced by both input QCD parameters and limited accuracy of the sum-rule method. Gaining this control is possible by applying our novel procedure for the extraction of hadron observables utilizing Borel-parameter-depending dual thresholds. For the charmed mesons, we obtain f{sub D} (206.2{+-}7.3{sub (OPE){+-}}5.1{sub (syst)}) MeV and f{sub D{sub s}} (245.3{+-}15.7{sub (OPE){+-}}4.5{sub (syst)}) MeV. In the case of the beauty mesons, the decay constants prove to be extremely sensitive tomore »« less

B- and D-meson leptonic decay constants and quark masses from four-flavor lattice QCD

Conference Bazavov, A. ; Bernard, C. ; Brambilla, N. ; ...

We describe a recent lattice-QCD calculation of the leptonic decay constants of heavy-light pseudoscalar mesons containing charm and bottom quarks and of the masses of the up, down, strange, charm, and bottom quarks. Results for these quantities are of the highest precision to date. Calculations use 24 isospin-symmetric ensembles of gauge-field configurations with six different lattice spacings as small as approximately 0.03 fm and several values of the light quark masses down to physical values of the average up- and down-sea-quark masses. We use the highly-improved staggered quark (HISQ) formulation for valence and sea quarks, including the bottom quark. Themore »« less

Light pseudoscalar decay constants, quark masses, and low energy constants from three-flavor lattice QCD

Journal Article Aubin, C ; Bernard, C ; DeTar, C ; ... - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

As part of our program of lattice simulations of three-flavor QCD with improved staggered quarks, we have calculated pseudoscalar meson masses and decay constants for a range of valence quark masses and sea-quark masses on lattices with lattice spacings of about 0.125 and 0.09 fm. We fit the lattice data to forms computed with ''staggered chiral perturbation theory.'' Our results provide a sensitive test of the lattice simulations, and especially of the chiral behavior, including the effects of chiral logarithms. We find: f{sub {pi}}=129.5{+-}0.9{+-}3.5 MeV, f{sub K}=156.6{+-}1.0{+-}3.6 MeV, and f{sub K}/f{sub {pi}}=1.210(4)(13), where the errors are statistical and systematic. Followingmore »« less
