Heavy Quarks on the Lattice

چکیده

I review the basic ideas behind lattice QCD calculations that involve charm and bottom quarks. I report on the progress in getting the correct hyperfine splitting in charmonium from lattice QCD. Some of the basic technology behind numerical lattice QCD calculations is explained by studying some specific examples: computation of the charm quark mass, and the calculation of fB .

The Mass Spectrum of Light and Heavy Hadrons from Improved Lattice Actions

We use improved lattice actions for glue, light quarks and heavy quarks for which we use lattice NRQCD to compute hadron masses. Our results are in good agreement with experiment, except for charmed hadrons. It seems that charmed quarks are not well approximated as heavy quarks nor as light quarks.

Effective Field Theories for Quantum Chromodynamics on the Lattice

Light and heavy-light (b) hadrons are among the most interesting and among the most challenging quantities to calculate in lattice gauge theory. One would like to avoid discretization effects from very heavy quarks and to calculate chiral extrapolations and calculate finite volume effects from light quarks. For this one uses effective theories: Chiral Perturbation Theory and Nonrelativistic QCD...

Heavy-Quark Masses from the Fermilab Method in Three-Flavor Lattice QCD

We report on heavy quark mass calculations using Fermilab heavy quarks. Lattice calculations of heavy-strange meson masses are combined with one-loop (automated) lattice perturbation theory to arrive at the quark mass. Mesons are constructed from Fermilab heavy quarks and staggered light quarks. We use the MILC ensembles at three lattice spacings and sea quark mass ratios of mu,d/ms = 0.1 to 0....

Status of heavy quark physics from the lattice

Lattice simulations provide a powerful tool to study QCD beyond perturbation theory. In particular, for quark masses around or below that of the strange quark, today’s lattices offer the possibility of very accurate and direct calculations of hadronic observables. The recent feasibility of simulating dynamical fermions (i.e. without neglecting the effects of internal quark loops) provide a sign...

Effective Field Theories and Quantum Chromodynamics on the Lattice

We give a selection of results on spectrum and decay constants of light and heavy-light hadrons. Effective fields theories relevant for their lattice calculation, namely non-relativistic QCD (NRQCD) for heavy quarks on the lattice and Chiral Perturbation Theory for light quarks, are briefly discussed.
