The rare kaon decay $K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar{\nu}$ is an ideal process in which to search for signs of new physics and is the primary goal of the NA62 experiment at CERN. In this paper we report on a lattice QCD calculation of the long-distance…
Dalitz decays of a hyperon resonance to a ground-state hyperon and an electron-positron pair can give access to some information about the composite structure of hyperons. We present expressions for the multi-differential decay rates in…
I review lattice calculations of quantities that involve light quarks, including light quark masses, the vector form factor f_+(0) needed for semileptonic kaon decays, and kaon mixing. Results for most of these quantities are now available…
It has long been expected that the spectrum of hadrons in QCD would be far richer and extensive than experiment has so far revealed. While there have been experimental hints of this richness for some time, it is really only in the last few…
