Lattice calculations of the form factors for $\bar{B}\to D^{(*)}\ell\bar{\nu}$ decays can be used to extract the CKM matrix element $|V_{cb}|$. The Oktay-Kronfeld action is a highly improved version of the Fermilab action, which…
Lattice QCD calculations in charm and bottom physics are particularly important because they can provide the hadronic weak decay matrix elements needed for key constraints on the CKM Unitarity Triangle. I will summarise recent results in…
We report on a two-flavour lattice QCD determination of the $B_s\to D_s$ and $B_s\to D_s^*$ transitions, which in the heavy quark limit can be parameterised by the form factors $\mathcal{G}$, and $h_{\text A_1}$, $h_{\text A_2}$ and…
In this article, we investigate the potential of the angular distribution of the $B \rightarrow D^* \ell {\nu}_{\ell}$ process to search for new physics signals. The Belle collaboration has analysed it to constraint $V_{cb}$ and the $B\to…
Following our previous proposal [1], we construct a class of good "lattice cross sections" (LCSs), from which we could study partonic structure of hadrons from ab initio lattice QCD calculations. These good LCSs, on the one hand, can be…
The computation of the form factors for the $B_s \to K \ell \nu$ decay is presented. The b quark is treated by means of Heavy Quark Effective Theory, currently in the static approximation. In these proceedings we discuss the extraction of…
We discuss the techniques to extract the electromagnetic Delta form factors in Lattice QCD. We evaluate these form factors using dynamical fermions with smallest pion mass of about 350 MeV. We pay particular attention to the extraction of…
We investigate the decays $B_c^- \rightarrow D_{s}^{(*)-}\ell^+\ell^-$ and $B_c^- \rightarrow D_{s}^{(*)-}\nu\bar{\nu}$ within the Standard Model (SM), employing perturbative QCD form factors that are sensitive to the wave functions of…
We present a lattice QCD calculation of the $B \rightarrow D l \nu$ semileptonic decay form factors $f_+(q^2)$ and $f_0(q^2)$ for the entire physical $q^2$ range. Non-relativistic QCD (NRQCD) bottom quarks and Highly Improved Staggered…

We present a determination of the scalar and tensor $\Lambda\to p$ transition form factors using lattice QCD. These form factors are relevant for semileptonic hyperon decays in the presence of extensions of the Standard Model that include…
We present the first unquenched lattice-QCD calculation of the hadronic form factors for the exclusive decay $\overline{B} \rightarrow D \ell \overline{\nu}$ at nonzero recoil. We carry out numerical simulations on fourteen ensembles of…
We review the application of lattice QCD to the phenomenology of b- and c-quarks. After a short discussion of the lattice techniques used to evaluate hadronic matrix elements and the corresponding systematic uncertainties, we summarise…
The decays governed by the flavor-changing-neutral-current transitions (FCNC), such as $b\to s\ell^{+}\ell^{-}$, provide an important tool to test the physics in and beyond the Standard Model (SM). This work focuses on investigating the…
