On a lattice with 2+1-flavor dynamical domain-wall fermions at the physical pion mass, we calculate the decay constants of $D_{s}^{(*)}$, $D^{(*)}$ and $\phi$. The lattice size is $48^3\times96$, which corresponds to a spatial extension of…

We explore the heavy-quark mass region above the charm mass using M\"obius domain-wall fermions on fine lattices at $a = 0.080$, $0.055$, and $0.044$ fm. We examine masses and decay constants using a series of heavy quark masses up to 3…

We formulate lattice fermions in a way that encompasses Wilson fermions as well as the static and non-relativistic approximations. In particular, we treat $m_qa$ systematically ($m_q$ is the fermion mass) showing how to understand the…
We have simulated QCD using 2+1 flavors of domain wall quarks on a $(2.74 {\rm fm})^3$ volume with an inverse lattice scale of $a^{-1} = 1.729(28)$ GeV. The up and down (light) quarks are degenerate in our calculations and we have used four…

We investigate the impact of including a dynamical charm quark on the properties of light hadrons. Our study uses gauge ensembles generated with the tadpole-improved Symanzik gauge action, comparing 2+1+1 flavor (HISQ fermion) ensembles at…
We extract the strong coupling constants of three mesons, each of which is composed of either two charm quarks or one charm quark and one light (i.e., $u$, $d$, or $s$) quark, from the matrix elements for the transitions of two of these…
We compute the fermionic contribution to the strong coupling $\alpha_{qq}$ extracted from the static force in Lattice QCD up to order $g^4$ in perturbation theory. This allows us to subtract the leading fermionic lattice artifacts from…

We present the first study of $N_f=2+1+1+1$ lattice QCD with domain-wall quarks. The $(b, c, s)$ quarks are physical, while the $(u, d)$ quarks are heavier than their physical masses, with the pion mass $ \sim 700 $ MeV. The gauge ensemble…
