چکیده

We formulate quenched chiral perturbation theory for heavy-light mesons coupled to pions, and calculate the one-loop chiral logarithmic corrections to fB, fBs , BB and BBs . We also calculate these corrections for “partially quenched” theories. In both theories, the chiral logarithms diverge in the chiral limit, indicating that (partially) quenched theories should not be used to study this limit. Comparing the chiral logarithms to those in QCD, we estimate the errors caused by (partial) quenching. By forming suitable ratios, we can reduce the uncertainties in our estimates.

Heavy-Meson Observables at One-Loop in Partially Quenched Chiral Perturbation Theory

I present one-loop level calculations of the Isgur-Wise functions for B → D(∗)eν, of the matrix elements of isovector twist-2 operators in B and D mesons, and the matrix elements for the radiative decays D∗ → Dγ in partially quenched heavy quark chiral perturbation theory. Such expressions are required in order to extrapolate from the light quark masses used in lattice simulations of the forese...

B → π and B → K transitions in standard and quenched chiral perturbation theory

We study the effects of chiral logs on the heavy → light pseudoscalar meson transition form factors by using standard and quenched chiral perturbation theory combined with the static heavy quark limit. The resulting expressions are used to indicate the size of uncertainties due to the use of the quenched approximation in the current lattice studies. They may also be used to assess the size of s...

Heavy-light semileptonic decays in staggered chiral perturbation theory

We calculate the form factors for the semileptonic decays of heavy-light pseudoscalar mesons in partially quenched staggered chiral perturbation theory (S PT), working to leading order in 1=mQ, where mQ is the heavy-quark mass. We take the light meson in the final state to be a pseudoscalar corresponding to the exact chiral symmetry of staggered quarks. The treatment assumes the validity of the...

Quenched Chiral Corrections to Heavy-Light Decay Constants at Order 1/M

Quenched chiral perturbation is used to study the decay constants for heavy-light mesons beyond the leading order in 1/M . The results are used to estimate the error in quenched lattice calculations of the decay constants. For the double ratio R1 = (fDs/fD)/(fBs/fB) we find that the error is small — conservatively 5%, but likely smaller. We also find that quenching decreases the ratio fDs/fD re...

Staggered chiral perturbation theory for heavy-light mesons

1550-7998=20 We incorporate heavy-light mesons into staggered chiral perturbation theory (S PT), working to leading order in 1=mQ, wheremQ is the heavy-quark mass. At first nontrivial order in the chiral expansion, staggered taste violations affect the chiral logarithms for heavy-light quantities only through the lightmeson propagators in loops. There are also new analytic contributions coming ...
