We use lattice methods to evaluate from first principles the spectrum of hybrid mesons produced by gluonic excitations in quenched QCD with quark masses near the strange quark mass. For the spin-exotic mesons with J P C = 1 −+ , 0 +− , and 2 +− which are not present in the quark model, we determine the lightest state to be 1 −+ with mass of 2.0(2) GeV. Results obtained for orbitally excited mes...

We present high-statistics results for neutral B-meson mixing and heavy-light-meson leptonic decays in the quenched approximation from tadpole-improved clover actions at β = 6.0 and β = 6.2. We consider quantities such as BBd(s) , fDd(s) , fBd(s) and the full ∆B = 2 matrix elements as well as the corresponding SU(3)-breaking ratios. These quantities are important for determining the CKM matrix ...

We present an exact local bosonic algorithm for the simulation of dynamical fermions in lattice QCD. We show that this algorithm is a viable alternative to the Hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm.
