Heavy-light decay constant at the 1/m order of HQET

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2009-04-14 v1

Abstract

Following the strategy developed by the ALPHA collaboration, we present a method to compute non-perturbatively the decay constant of a heavy-light meson in HQET including the 1/m corrections. We start by a matching between HQET and QCD in a small volume to determine the parameters of the effective theory non-perturbatively. Observables in the effective theory are then evolved to larger volumes. In two steps a large enough volume is reached to determine the physical decay constant. Some preliminary results in the quenched approximation are shown.
