We study a quenched SU(2) lattice gauge theory in which, in an attempt to distinguish between timelike and spacelike gauge fields, the gauge ensemble {U_mu} is generated from a 3 dimensional gauge-Higgs model, the timelike link variables…
We compute the Schroedinger functional (SF) for the case of pure SU(3) gauge theory at two-loop order in lattice perturbation theory. This allows us to extract the three-loop beta-function in the SF-scheme. These results are required to…
The potential between two heavy-light mesons as a function of the heavy quark separation is calculated in quenched SU(3) lattice QCD. We study the case of heavy-light mesons with a static heavy quark and light quarks of mass close to the…

We study pure SU(3) gauge theory on a large lattice, using Schrodinger's equation. Our approximate solution uses a basis of roughly 1000 states. Gauge invariance is recovered when the color content of the ground state is extrapolated to…

Heavy quark transport coefficients in a strongly coupled Quark-Gluon Plasma can be evaluated using a gauge/string duality and lattice QCD. Via this duality, one can argue that for low momenta the drag coefficient for heavy quarks is…
We present results for tetraquark potentials of two static anti-quarks $\bar b \bar b$ in the presence of two light quarks $u$ and/or $d$. We improve on existing results by computing the static potential also for off-axis separations, which…
We illustrate the current status of heavy quark physics on the lattice. Special emphasis is paid to the question of systematic uncertainties and to the connection of lattice computations to continuum physics. Latest results are presented…
We study field strength correlators in presence of a static quark-antiquark pair by use of lattice methods. The lattice data have been acquired recently in the context of a determination of relativistic corrections to the static interquark…
In this paper we show how the stochastic quantization method developed by Parisi and Wu can be used to obtain Casimir forces. Both quantum and thermal fluctuations are taken into account by a Langevin equation for the field. The method…
We describe the "relative weights" method used to compute the effective Polyakov line action corresponding to a given lattice gauge theory, and present some results that have been obtained so far. The main motivation is the sign problem,…
I report on the status of a computation of fundamental and some higher representation string tensions in pure gauge SU(3). An order a^2 tadpole improved action and an anisotropic lattice are used. At present, the static quark potentials and…
We measure accurate values of the inter-quark potentials on a $48^{3}56$ lattice with SU(2) pure gauge theory at $ \beta =2.85$. The scale is set by extracting the string tension - we obtain ${\sqrt K}a=0.063(3)$ at $\beta =2.85.$ From a…
We present a calculation of Wilson loops, and the static inter-quark potential to $O(\alpha^2)$ in lattice perturbation theory. This is carried out with the Wilson, Symanzik-Weisz, and Iwasaki gauge actions and the Wilson,…
