High Energy Physics - Lattice 2009-10-31 v2

Abstract

We present our study on BπlνB \to \pi l \nu semileptonic decay form factors with NRQCD action for heavy quark from a quenched lattice QCD simulation at β\beta=5.9 on a 163×4816^3\times 48 lattice. We obtain form factors defined in the context of heavy quark effective theory by Burdman et al. and find that their 1/mB1/m_B correction is small. The limit of physical heavy and light quark masses can be performed without introducing any model function, and we obtain a prediction for the differential decay rate dΓ/dq2d\Gamma/dq^2. We also discuss the soft pion limit of the form factors.
