The Ds and D+ Leptonic Decay Constants from Lattice QCD
A. Bazavov, C. Bernard, C. DeTar +16
We present the leptonic decay constants fDs and fD+ computed on the MILC collaboration's 2+1 flavor asqtad gauge ensembles. We use clover heavy quarks with the Fermilab interpretat…
Progress on charm semileptonic form factors from 2+1 flavor lattice QCD
Jon A. Bailey, A. Bazavov, C. Bernard +19
Lattice calculations of the form factors for the charm semileptonic decays D to K l nu and D to pi l nu provide inputs to direct determinations of the CKM matrix elements |V(cs)| a…
Results from the MILC collaboration's SU(3) chiral perturbation theory analysis
A. Bazavov, C. Bernard, C. DeTar +12
We present the status of the MILC collaboration's analysis of the light pseudoscalar meson sector with SU(3) chiral fits. The analysis includes data from new ensembles with smaller…
The CKM matrix and flavor physics from lattice QCD
Ruth S. Van de Water
I discuss the role of lattice QCD in testing the Standard Model and searching for physics beyond the Standard Model in the quark flavor sector. I first review the Standard Model CK…
Lattice QCD inputs to the CKM unitarity triangle analysis
Jack Laiho, Ruth S. Van de Water, Enrico Lunghi
We perform a global fit to the CKM unitarity triangle using the latest experimental and theoretical constraints. Our emphasis is on the hadronic weak matrix elements that enter the…
Progress on four flavor QCD with the HISQ action
MILC Collaboration, A. Bazavov, C. Bernard +11
We describe recent progress on generation of gauge configurations using the Highly Improved Staggered Quark (HISQ) action that was designed by the HPQCD/UKQCD collaboration. The HI…
SU(2) chiral fits to light pseudoscalar masses and decay constants
A. Bazavov, C. Bernard, C. DeTar +12
We present the results of fits to recent asqtad data in the light pseudoscalar sector using SU(2) partially-quenched staggered chiral perturbation theory. Superfine (a~0.06 fm) and…
MILC results for light pseudoscalars
A. Bazavov, C. Bernard, C. DeTar +12
We present the latest preliminary results of the MILC collaboration's analysis of the light pseudoscalar meson sector. The analysis includes data from new ensembles with smaller la…
Flavor Physics in the Quark Sector
M. Antonelli, D. M. Asner, D. Bauer +137
One of the major challenges of particle physics has been to gain an in-depth understanding of the role of quark flavor and measurements and theoretical interpretations of their res…
The neutral kaon mixing parameter B_K from unquenched mixed-action lattice QCD
C. Aubin, Jack Laiho, Ruth S. Van de Water
We calculate the neutral kaon mixing parameter B_K in unquenched lattice QCD using asqtad-improved staggered sea quarks and domain-wall valence quarks. We use the "2+1" flavor gaug…
Full nonperturbative QCD simulations with 2+1 flavors of improved staggered quarks
A. Bazavov, C. Bernard, C. DeTar +10
Dramatic progress has been made over the last decade in the numerical study of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) through the use of improved formulations of QCD on the lattice (improved…
