Abstract

We present two-flavor lattice QCD estimates of the hadronic couplings gB0Bπg_{B^*_0 B \pi} and gB1B0πg_{B_1^* B_0^* \pi} that parametrise the non leptonic decays B0BπB^*_0 \to B \pi and B1B0πB^*_1 \to B_0^* \pi. We use CLS two-flavour gauge ensembles. Our framework is the Heavy Quark Effective Theory (HQET) in the static limit and solving a Generalized Eigenvalue Problem (GEVP) reveals crucial to disentangle the B0B^*_0(B1B^*_1) state from the BπB \pi(BπB^*\pi) state. This work brings us some experience on how to treat the possible contribution from multihadronic states to correlation functions calculated on the lattice, especially when SS-wave states are involved.
