Width difference of the Bs mesons from lattice QCD
نویسنده
چکیده
We extend our previous studies to calculate the B meson B parameters BB and BS on the lattice, and present an update of the results for the Bs meson width difference. We perform an extensive study of systematic errors in the quenched calculation of the B-parameters, and find that the systematic errors are in good control using the NRQCD action for heavy quark. We also report our preliminary results from unquenched simulations.

Width difference in the Bs-B̄s system with lattice nonrelativistic QCD
We present a lattice calculation of the Bs-B̄s transition-matrix element through a four-quark operator OS 5 b̄(12g5)sb̄(12g5)s , which gives a leading contribution in the calculation of the width difference DGs in the 1/mb expansion. The nonrelativistic QCD formulation is used to describe b quark on the lattice. Using the next-to-leading formula of Beneke et al., we obtain (DG/G)s50.151(37)(45)(17...
متن کاملQCD corrections to lifetime differences of B s mesons 1
The calculation of QCD corrections to the width difference ∆Γ in the Bs-meson system is presented. The next-to-leading order corrections reduce the dependence on the renormalization scale significantly and allow for a meaningful use of hadronic matrix elements from lattice gauge theory. At present the uncertainty of the lattice calculations limits the prediction of ∆Γ. The presented work has be...
متن کاملHadronic decay of a scalar B meson from the lattice
We explore the transitions B(0 +) to B π and Bs(0 +) to B K from lattice QCD with N f = 2 flavours of sea quark, using the static approximation for the heavy quark. We evaluate the effective coupling constants, predicting a B(0 +) to B π width of around 160 MeV. Our result for the coupling strength adds to the evidence that the Bs(0 +) meson is not predominantly a molecular state (BK).
متن کاملLifetime Differences and CP Violation Parameters of Neutral B Mesons at the Next-to-Leading Order in QCD
We compute the next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the off-diagonal elements of the decay-width matrix Γ entering the neutral B-meson oscillations. From this calculation the width differences ∆Γ and the CP violation parameters (q/p) of Bd and Bs mesons are estimated, including the complete O(αs) QCD corrections and the 1/mb contributions. For the width difference ∆Γs we agree with previous...
متن کاملNext-to-Leading Order QCD Corrections to the Lifetime Difference of Bs Mesons
We compute the QCD corrections to the decay rate difference in the Bs–B̄s system, ∆ΓBs , in the next-to-leading logarithmic approximation using the heavy quark expansion approach. Going beyond leading order in QCD is essential to obtain a proper matching of the Wilson coefficients to the matrix elements of local operators from lattice gauge theory. The lifetime difference is reduced considerably...
