$B\to D^{(\ast )}\ell \hat{I}½$ semileptonic decays in lattice QCD with domain-wall heavy quarks

Abstract

We calculate the $B\to D^{(\ast )}\ell \hat{I}½$ form factors in 2+1 flavor relativistic lattice QCD by employing the Möbius domain-wall action for all quark flavors. Our simulations are carried out at lattice cut-offs $a^{-1}\sim 2.5$, 3.6 and 4.5 GeV with the bottom quark masses up to 0.7 $a^{-1}$ to control discretization effects. We extrapolate the form factors to the continuum limit and physical quark masses, and discuss systematic uncertainties of the form factors.
