We report results on semileptonic $Btopi lbar{ u}$ decay form factors near $q^2_{rm max}$ using NRQCD heavy quark and clover light quark actions and currents improved through $O(alpha a)$. An inconsistency with the soft pion relation $f^0(q^2_{rm max})= f_B/f_{pi}$ found in a previous work is confirmed, and a possible solution with nonperturbative renormalization is discussed. We find that $f^+(q^2)$ is well described by the $B^*$ pole near $q^2_{rm max}$, and its $1/M_B$ scaling is also consistent with the prediction of the pole dominance model.
We formulate Non-Relativistic Quantum Chromodynamics (NRQCD) on a lattice which is boosted relative to the usual discretization frame. Moving NRQCD (mNRQCD) allows us to treat the momentum for the heavy quark arising from the frame choice exactly. We derive mNRQCD through O(1/m^2,v^4), as accurate as the NRQCD action in present use, both in the continuum and on the lattice with O(a^4) improvements. We have carried out extensive tests of the formalism through calculations of two-point correlators for both heavy-heavy (bottomonium) and heavy-light (B_s) mesons in 2+1 flavor lattice QCD and obtained nonperturbative determinations of energy shift and external momentum renormalization. Comparison to perturbation theory at O(alpha_s) is also made. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of mNRQCD. In particular we show that the decay constants of heavy-light and heavy-heavy mesons can be calculated with small systematic errors up to much larger momenta than with standard NRQCD.
We discuss our ongoing effort to calculate form factors for several B and Bs semileptonic decays. We have recently completed the first unquenched calculation of the form factors for the rare decay B -> K ll. Extrapolated over the full kinematic range of q^2 via model-independent z expansion, these form factor results allow us to calculate several Standard Model observables. We compare with experiment (Belle, BABAR, CDF, and LHCb) where possible and make predictions elsewhere. We discuss preliminary results for Bs -> K l nu which, when combined with anticipated experimental results, will provide an alternative exclusive determination of |Vub|. We are exploring the possibility of using ratios of form factors for this decay with those for the unphysical decay Bs -> eta_s as a means of significantly reducing form factor errors. We are also studying B -> pi l nu, form factors for which are combined with experiment in the standard exclusive determination of |Vub|. Our simulations use NRQCD heavy and HISQ light valence quarks on the MILC 2+1 dynamical asqtad configurations.
We report on our calculation of the B to D^(*) ell u form factors in 2+1 flavor lattice QCD. The Mobius domain-wall action is employed for light, strange, charm and bottom quarks. At lattice cutoffs 1/a sim 2.4, 3.6 and 4.5 GeV, we simulate bottom quark masses up to 0.7/a to control discretization errors. The pion mass is as low as 230 MeV. We extrapolate the form factors to the continuum limit and physical quark masses, and make a comparison with recent phenomenological analyses.
We present a lattice QCD calculation of the heavy quark expansion parameters $mu_{pi}^2$ and $mu_G^2$ for heavy-light mesons and heavy-light-light baryons. The calculation is carried out on a 20$^3times$48 lattice at $beta$ = 6.0 in the quenched approximation, using the lattice NRQCD action for heavy quarks. We obtain the parameters $mu_{pi}^2$ and $mu_G^2$ in two different methods: a direct calculation of the matrix elements and an indirect calculation through the mass spectrum, and confirm that the both methods give consistent results. We also discuss an application to the lifetime ratios.
Using the lattice NRQCD action for heavy quark, we calculate the heavy quark expansion parameters $mu_{pi}^2$ and $mu_G^2$ for heavy-light mesons and heavy-light-light baryons. The results are compared with the mass differences among heavy hadrons to test the validity of HQET relations on the lattice.
