We present a lattice QCD determination of the b quark mass and of the B and B_s decay constants, performed with N_f=2 twisted mass Wilson fermions, by simulating at four values of the lattice spacing. In order to study the b quark on the…

We have computed the decay constants for the $B$ and $D$ mesons, using quenched lattices at $\beta=6.3$, by interpolating between the static approximation of Eichten and the conventional (``heavy'' Wilson fermion) method. A more careful…

We present a detailed description of the method and results of our calculation of the kaon B parameter using the Wilson quark action in quenched QCD at $\beta=5.9-6.5$. The mixing problem of the $\Delta s=2$ four-quark operators is solved…

We investigate the use of two kinds of staggered fermion operators, smeared and unsmeared. The smeared operators extend over a $4^4$ hypercube, and tend to have smaller perturbative corrections than the corresponding unsmeared operators. We…

We describe how the Schroedinger functional and twisted mass QCD can be used to compute the kaon B-parameter B_K on the lattice with Wilson fermions. This new approach is expected to reduce the systematic uncertainties on B_K through a…
