We present a determination of the decay constants of the $D$ and $D_s$ mesons from lattice QCD, each with a total error of about 2%, approximately a factor of three better than previous calculations. We have been able to achieve this through the use of a highly improved discretization of QCD for charm quarks, coupled to gauge configurations generated by the MILC collaboration that include the full effect of sea u, d, and s quarks. We have results for a range of u/d masses down to m_s/5 and three values of the lattice spacing, which allow us to perform accurate continuum and chiral extrapolations. We fix the charm quark mass to give the experimental value of the eta_c mass, and then a stringent test of our approach is the fact that we obtain correct (and accurate) values for the mass of the D and D_s mesons. We compare f_D and f_{D_s} with f_K and f_pi, and using experiment determine corresponding CKM elements with good precision.
We present the leptonic decay constants fDs and fD+ computed on the MILC collaborations 2+1 flavor asqtad gauge ensembles. We use clover heavy quarks with the Fermilab interpretation and improved staggered light quarks. The simultaneous chiral and co
We determine $D$ and $D_s$ decay constants from lattice QCD with 2% errors, 4 times better than experiment and previous theory: $f_{D_s}$ = 241(3) MeV, $f_D$ = 207(4) MeV and $f_{D_s}/f_D$ = 1.164(11). We also obtain $f_K/f_{pi}$ = 1.189(7) and $(f
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 gau
A numerical calculation of the lattice staggered renormalisation constants at $beta = 5.35$, $m = 0.01$ is presented. It is seen that there are considerable non-perturbative effects present. As an application the vector decay constant $f_rho$ is esti
We present an update of our calculations of the decay constants of the D, D_s, B, and B_s mesons in unquenched 2+1 flavor QCD. We use the MILC library of improved staggered gauge ensembles at lattice spacings 0.09, 0.12, and 0.15 fm, clover heavy qua
