Title: The $$B\to D^\ast\ell\nu$$ Semileptonic Decay at Nonzero Recoil and Its Implications for $$\ |V_{cb}\ |$$ and $$R(D^\ast)$$

OSTI ID:1581413

We present nearly final results from our analysis of the form factors for $$B\to D^\ast\ell\nu$$ decay at nonzero recoil. Our analysis includes 15 MILC asqtad ensembles with $$N_f=2+1$$ flavors of sea quarks and lattice spacings ranging from $$a\approx0.15$$ fm down to $0.045$ fm. The valence light quarks employ the asqtad action, whereas the $$b$$ and $$c$$ quarks are treated using the Fermilab action. We discuss the impact that our results will have on $$\ |V_{cb}\ |$$ and $$R(D^\ast)$$.
