We report on a two-flavor lattice QCD estimate of the $B_s$ and $B^*_s$ leptonic decays parameterized by the decay constants $f_{B_s}$ and $f_{B^*_s}$. In addition to their relevance for phenomenology, their extraction has allowed us to…

A lot of effort in lattice simulations over the last years has been devoted to studies of the QCD deconfinement transition. Most state-of-the-art simulations use rooted staggered fermions, while Wilson fermions are affected by large…
QCD lattice simulations with 2+1 flavours typically start at rather large up-down and strange quark masses and extrapolate first the strange quark mass to its physical value and then the up-down quark mass. An alternative method of tuning…
The gradient flow renormalized coupling offers a simple and relatively inexpensive way to calculate the step scaling function and the lattice scale, but both applications can be hindered by large lattice artifacts. Recently we introduced an…
