In our previous DWF calculation with the Wilson gauge action at $\beta=6.0$ ($a^{-1}\simeq$ 1.9 GeV) on a $16^3 \times 32 \times 16$ lattice, we found that $\Ga$ had a fairly strong dependence on the quark mass. A simple linear…
Recently, several LQCD simulations have proven that the interaction in the isoscalar channel in $DD^*$ scattering is attractive. This channel is naturally connected to the $T_{cc}(3875)^+$ which is observed in the $D^0D^0\pi^+$ invariant…
We calculate the leading order hadronic contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment using twisted mass lattice QCD. The pion masses range from 330 MeV to 650 MeV. We use two lattice spacings, a=0.079 fm and 0.063 fm, to study lattice…
We present a lattice QCD study of the $K^*(892)$ resonance using eight $N_f=2+1$ Wilson-Clover ensembles with three lattice spacings and six pion masses ranging from 135 to 320 MeV. For each ensemble, a large number of finite volume energy…
We present the first step towards the estimation of finite volume effects in heavy-light meson systems using heavy meson chiral perturbation theory. We demonstrate that these effects can be amplified in both light-quark and heavy-quark mass…
We investigate bottomonia splittings by solving a Schrodinger-Pauli-type equation with parametrisations of QCD potentials around those that have been determined previously in lattice simulations. This is done both, in the continuum and on…

We investigate the neutron's response to magnetic fields on a torus with the aid of chiral perturbation theory, and expose effects from non-vanishing holonomies. The determination of such effects necessitates non-perturbative treatment of…
We present a new Bjorken $x$-dependence analysis of a previous lattice quantum chromodynamics data for the pion distribution amplitude from MILC configurations with three lattice spacing $a=0.06,0.09, 0.12$~fm. A leading renormalon…
We present an exploratory lattice study of $B\to\pi$ semileptonic decay form factors using the nonrelativistic lattice QCD for heavy quark with Wilson light quark on a $16^3 \times 32$ quenched lattice at $\beta=5.8$. The matrix elements…
We determine to order alpha^3 in the quenched approximation the so-called residual mass in the lattice regularisation of the Heavy Quark Effective Theory. We follow a gauge-invariant strategy which exploits the fact that this mass term…
The H-dibaryon is the exotic multiquark state with baryon number 2 and strangeness $-2$. The existence of the deeply bound H-dibaryon is excluded by the observation of the double hypernuclei. However the recent Lattice QCD simulations have…
We calculate the axial couplings of mesons and baryons containing a heavy quark in the static limit using lattice QCD. These couplings determine the leading interactions in heavy hadron chiral perturbation theory and are central quantities…
We study the light quark mass dependence of the $D$ and $D_s$ meson decay constants, $f_D$ and $f_{D_s}$, using a covariant formulation of chiral perturbation theory ($\chi$PT) at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO). Using the HPQCD…
We present a factorisation formula for the dependence of light hadron masses and low energy hadronic scales on the mass $M$ of a heavy quark: apart from an overall factor $Q$, ratios such as $r_0(M)/r_0(0)$ are computable in perturbation…
In a recent paper Phys.Rev.Lett. 111, 042002 (2013) (arXiv:1304.0846), the charmonium state X(3872) is studied in the framework of an effective field theory. In that work it is claimed that (i) the one-pion exchange (OPE) alone provides…
Low energy precision experiments provide significant tests of the laws of nature that can reveal physics beyond the Standard Model. A good theoretical understanding of the low energy properties of QCD is required for this purpose. The…
Heavy-light mesons, heavy quarkonium and doubly heavy baryons are briefly discussed. Effective field theories (EFTs) of QCD based on the heavy quark mass expansion 1/m_Q provide a unified framework to describe all three systems. They…
