Update: Accurate Determinations of alpha_s from Realistic Lattice QCD
C. T. H. Davies, K. Hornbostel, I. D. Kendall +4
We use lattice QCD simulations, with MILC configurations (including vacuum polarization from u, d, and s quarks), to update our previous determinations of the QCD coupling constant…
Charm physics with highly improved staggered quarks
C. T. H. Davies, E. Follana, K. Hornbostel +5
We use a relativistic highly improved staggered quark action to discretize charm quarks on the lattice. We calculate the masses and the dispersion relation for heavy-heavy and heav…
Unquenched determination of the kaon parameter B_K from improved staggered fermions
E. Gamiz, S. Collins, C. T. H. Davies +3
The use of improved staggered actions (HYP, Asqtad) has been proved to reduce the scaling corrections that affected previous calculations of B_K with unimproved (standard) staggere…
The Upsilon spectrum and m_b from full lattice QCD
A. Gray, I. Allison, C. T. H. Davies +4
We show results for the Upsilon spectrum calculated in lattice QCD including for the first time vacuum polarization effects for light u and d quarks as well as s quarks. We use glu…
Accurate Determinations of from Realistic Lattice QCD
Q. Mason, H. D. Trottier, C. T. H. Davies +5
We obtain a new value for the QCD coupling constant by combining lattice QCD simulations with experimental data for hadron masses. Our lattice analysis is the first to: 1) include…
Semileptonic B Decays with Nf=2+1 Dynamical Quarks
J. Shigemitsu, C. T. H. Davies, A. Dougall +6
Semileptonic, B --> pi l,nu, decays are studied on the MILC dynamical configurations using NRQCD heavy and Asqtad light quarks. We work with light valence quark masses ranging betw…
