Energy loss for heavy quarks in relation to light partons: is radiative energy loss for heavy quarks anomalous?

The scaling properties of jet-suppression measurements are compared for nonphotonic electrons (e+/-) and neutral pions (pi(0)) in Au+Au collisions at sqrt[S(NN)]=200 GeV. For a broad range of transverse momenta and collision centralities, the comparison is consistent with jet quenching dominated by radiative energy loss for both heavy and light partons. Less quenching is indicated for heavy qua...

Perturbative Matching of Heavy-Light Currents with NRQCD Heavy Quarks

Lattice studies of hadronic matrix elements require matching between operators in full continuum QCD and those in the lattice theory being simulated. In the present article we will focus on an effective lattice theory which combines nonrelativistic (NRQCD) heavy quarks and clover light quarks. We wish to match the theories correct through O( p M , α p M , α ap). For heavy meson (e.g. B and B∗) ...

Heavy and Light Quarks with Lattice Chiral Fermions

The feasibility of using lattice chiral fermions which are free of O(a) errors for both the heavy and light quarks is examined. The fact that the effective quark propagators in these fermions have the same form as that in the continuum with the quark mass being only an additive parameter to a chirally symmetric antihermitian Dirac operator is highlighted. This implies that there is no distincti...

Relativistic NJL Model with Light and Heavy Quarks

We study the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model with light and heavy quarks in a relativistic approach. We emphasize relevant regularization issues as well as the transition from light to heavy quarks. The approach of the electromagnetic meson form factor to the Isgur-Wise function in the heavy quark limit is

Heavy-light Mesons and Baryons with b quarks

We present lattice results for the spectrum of mesons containing one heavy quark and of baryons containing one or two heavy quarks. The calculation is done in the quenched approximation using the NRQCD formalism for the heavy quark. We analyze the dependence of the mass splittings on both the heavy and the light quark masses. Meson P -state fine structure and baryon hyperfine splittings are res...
