چکیده

We report on the first complete calculation of the K_{L}-K_{S} mass difference, ΔM_{K}, using lattice QCD. The calculation is performed on a 2+1 flavor, domain wall fermion ensemble with a 330 MeV pion mass and a 575 MeV kaon mass. We use a quenched charm quark with a 949 MeV mass to implement Glashow-Iliopoulos-Maiani cancellation. For these heavier-than-physical particle masses, we obtain ΔM_{K}=3.19(41)(96)×10^{-12}  MeV, quite similar to the experimental value. Here the first error is statistical, and the second is an estimate of the systematic discretization error. An interesting aspect of this calculation is the importance of the disconnected diagrams, a dramatic failure of the Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka rule.

Isospin splittings in the light-baryon octet from lattice QCD and QED.

While electromagnetic and up-down quark mass difference effects on octet baryon masses are very small, they have important consequences. The stability of the hydrogen atom against beta decay is a prominent example. Here, we include these effects by adding them to valence quarks in a lattice QCD calculation based on Nf=2+1 simulations with five lattice spacings down to 0.054 fm, lattice sizes up...

Studies of the QCD and QED effects on Isospin breaking

The isopin breaking effect due to different masses and electric charges between up/down quarks are stuided non-perturbatively using lattice QCD+QED. Up, down, and strange quark masses are determined using K±,K0, and π± meson masses as inputs. The charge splitting of Kaon mass, mK± −mK0 , is broken up into the part coming from up, down quark mass difference and that from electromagnetic effects....

Magnetic polarizability of hadrons from lattice QCD in the background field method

We present a calculation of hadron magnetic polarizability using the techniques of lattice QCD. This is carried out by introducing a uniform external magnetic field on the lattice and measuring the quadratic part of a hadron’s mass shift. The calculation is performed on a 24 lattice with standard Wilson actions at beta=6.0 (spacing a = 0.1 fm) and pion mass down to about 500 MeV. Results are ob...

After a brief discussion of the promise and limitations of the lattice technique, I review lattice QCD results for several quantities of phenomenological interest. These are: matrix elements for heavy-to-light meson decays, leptonic decay constants f B and f D , the parameters B B and B K for neutral B and K meson mixing respectively, the strong coupling constant, light quark masses and the lig...

Recent Progress in Heavy Quark Physics

Some of the recent progress in heavy quark physics is reviewed. Special attention is paid to inclusive methods for determining V ub and factorization in nonleptonic ¯ B decays. Theoretical predictions for ¯ tt production near threshold are also discussed. Since QCD cannot be solved exactly every theoretical prediction of the properties of hadrons containing one or more heavy quarks involves app...
