چکیده

We present the first lattice QCD calculation with realistic sea quark content of the D+-meson decay constant f(D+). We use the MILC Collaboration's publicly available ensembles of lattice gauge fields, which have a quark sea with two flavors (up and down) much lighter than a third (strange). We obtain f(D+)=201+/-3+/-17 MeV, where the errors are statistical and a combination of systematic errors. We also obtain f(Ds)=249+/-3+/-16 MeV for the Ds meson.

Lattice QCD Calculations of Nucleon Properties at the Intensity Frontier

During the past decade, lattice QCD has made substantial progress in several areas that influence particle physics, nuclear physics, and astrophysics. Once enough computing and algorithmic power became available to treat virtual quark-antiquark pairs (the “sea” quarks) realistically, the results of lattice-QCD calculations rapidly reproduced a wide variety of hadron properties [1]. The same tec...

We investigate the anisotropic lattice with O(a) improved quark action as a candidate of framework in which we can treat both the heavy and light quark region in the same manner and systematically reduce the systematic uncertainties. To examine applicability of anisotropic lattice, we calculate the charmed meson spectrum and decay constants in quenched approximation. We find consistent result w...

B - and D - meson decay constants from three - flavor lattice QCD

We calculate the leptonic decay constants of B(s) and D(s) mesons in lattice QCD using staggered light quarks and Fermilab bottom and charm quarks. We compute the heavy-light meson correlation functions on the MILC asqtad-improved staggered gauge configurations which include the effects of three light dynamical sea quarks. We simulate with several values of the light valenceand sea-quark masses...

2+1 flavor lattice QCD simulation with O(a)-improved Wilson quarks We present simulation details and results for the light hadron spectrum in N f = 2 + 1 lattice QCD with the nonperturbatively O(a)-improved Wilson quark action and the Iwasaki gauge action. Simulations are carried out at a lattice spacing of 0.09 fm on a (2.9fm) 3 box using the PACS-CS computer. We employ the Lüscher's domain-de...

Charmed spectroscopy from a nonperturbatively determined relativistic heavy quark action in full QCD

We present a preliminary calculation of the charmed meson spectrum using the 2+1 flavor domain wall fermion lattice configurations currently being generated by the RBC and UKQCD collaborations. The calculation is performed using the 3-parameter, relativistic heavy quark action with nonperturbatively determined coefficients. We will also demonstrate a step-scaling procedure for determining these...
