We report on a two-flavor lattice QCD study of the axial, charge and matter distributions of the $B$ meson and its first radial excitation. As our framework is the static limit of Heavy Quark Effective Theory (HQET), taking their Fourier…

We use heavy quark effective theory (HQET) and perturbative QCD to study the heavy meson -- light vector meson transitions involved in D and B decays. HQET is used to relate the measured D -> K* l nu vector and axial-vector form factors at…
The results of an extensive study of B-meson properties in quenched lattice QCD are presented. The studies are carried out in the static quark limit where the b-quark is taken to be infinitely massive. Our computations rely on a multistate…
By combining the first unquenched lattice computation of the B-meson binding energy and the two-loop contribution to the lattice HQET residual mass, we determine the (\bar{{MS}}) (b)-quark mass, (\bar{m}_{b}(\bar{m}_{b})). The inclusion of…
Various properties of heavy-light mesons are determined, including decay constants, the $B_{B}$-parameter, and the Isgur-Wise function. The heavy (bottom) quark is simulated with the static, NRQCD and/or (fixed-velocity) lattice-HQET…

We consider QCD with one massless quark and one heavy quark in a finite volume of linear extent L_0 ~ 0.2 fm. In this situation, HQET represents an expansion in terms of 1/z=1/(m L_0), which we test by a non-perturbative computation of…
