The Aoki phase revisited

V. Azcoiti, G. Di Carlo, E. Follana +1

In order to elucidate the vacuum structure of the Aoki phase, we carried out a numerical investigation of QCD with two flavours of Wilson fermions, within the p.d.f. framework and…

Heavy-light current-current correlators

Jonna Koponen, Christine T. H. Davies, Kent Hornbostel +5

The current-current correlator method has been used successfully to obtain very accurate results for quark masses and the coupling alpha_s. The calculations were done using Highly…

Precise B, B_s and B_c meson spectroscopy from full lattice QCD

Eric B. Gregory, Christine T. H. Davies, Iain D. Kendall +8

We give the first accurate results for and meson masses from lattice QCD including the effect of , and sea quarks, and we improve an earlier value for the $B_c…

Semileptonic Decay Scalar Form Factor and from Lattice QCD

Heechang Na, Christine T. H. Davies, Eduardo Follana +2

We present a new study of D semileptonic decays on the lattice which employs the Highly Improved Staggered Quark (HISQ) action for both the charm and the light valence quarks. We w…

Update: Precision D_s decay constant from full lattice QCD using very fine lattices

C. T. H. Davies, C. McNeile, E. Follana +3

We update our previous determination of both the decay constant and the mass of the meson using the Highly Improved Staggered Quark formalism. We include additional results a…

High-Precision c and b Masses, and QCD Coupling from Current-Current Correlators in Lattice and Continuum QCD

C. McNeile, C. T. H. Davies, E. Follana +2

We extend our earlier lattice-QCD analysis of heavy-quark correlators to smaller lattice spacings and larger masses to obtain new values for the c mass and QCD coupling, and, for t…

Parity Realization in Lattice QCD with Ginsparg-Wilson Fermions

V. Azcoiti, G. Di Carlo, E. Follana +1

The Vafa-Witten arguments on the realization of parity and flavour symmetries in the QCD vacuum do not apply to two lattice regularizations of QCD which are able to reproduce the c…
