We present a short review on the properties of heavy and light mesons' light-cone wavefunctions (LCWFs), and their distribution amplitudes (DAs). The B meson LCWFs can be treated by taking the heavy quark limit ($m_b\to\infty$) and by using…
Quenched chiral perturbation theory is extended to include heavy-light mesons. Non-analytic corrections to the decay constants, Isgur-Wise function and masses and mixing of heavy mesons are then computed. The results are used to estimate…
We present a lattice calculation of the B meson B-parameter B_B using the NRQCD action. The heavy quark mass dependence is explicitly studied over a mass range between m_b and 4m_b with the $O(1/m_Q)$ and $O(1/m_Q^2)$ actions. We find that…
We present a precise lattice QCD determination of the b-quark mass, of the B and Bs decay constants and first results for the B-meson bag parameters. For our computation we employ the so-called ratio method and our results benefit from the…
The masses of spin-singlet and spin-triplet S-wave mesons containing a single heavy quark are computed in the quenched approximation. The light quark action and gauge field action are both classically-improved and tadpole-improved, and the…
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…

The mass spectrum of S and P-wave mesons containing a single heavy quark is computed in the quenched approximation, using NRQCD up to third order in the inverse heavy quark mass expansion. Previous results found third order contributions…
We present results for the b \bar b spectrum obtained using an O(M_bv^6)-correct non-relativistic lattice QCD action. Propagators are evaluated on SESAM's three sets of dynamical gauge configurations generated with two flavours of Wilson…
We determine the masses of the light and the strange quarks in the MS-bar-scheme using our high-statistics lattice simulation of QCD with dynamical Wilson fermions. For each of our three sea quarks we have analyzed our data at five…
We explain how to perform non-perturbative computations in HQET on the lattice. In particular the problem of the subtraction of power-law divergences is solved by a non-perturbative matching of HQET and QCD. As examples, we present a full…
We present results for the spectrum of b-bbar bound states in the quenched approximation for three different values of the lattice spacing. Results for spin-independent splittings are shown to have good scaling behaviour; spin-dependent…
We perform the non-perturbative (quenched) renormalization of the chromo-magnetic operator in Heavy Quark Effective Theory and its three-loop matching to QCD. At order 1/m of the expansion, the operator is responsible for the mass splitting…
The mass spectrum of heavy quark baryons has been computed on anisotropic lattices using quenched lattice nonrelativistic QCD. The mass splittings between spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 baryons are also calculated. Results are compared to those…
We present a two-flavor dynamical QCD calculation of the B meson B parameters and decay constant. We use NRQCD for heavy quark and the nonperturbatively O(a)-improved Wilson action for light quark at $\beta$=5.2 on a $20^3\times 48$…
We present the masses of singly ($B$, $B_s$, $\Lambda_b$, $\Sigma_b$, etc.), doubly ($B_c$, $\eta_b$, $\Upsilon$, $\Xi_{bc}$, $\Xi_{bb}$, etc.), and triply ($\Omega_{bcc}$, $\Omega_{bbc}$, $\Omega_{bbb}$, etc.) heavy hadrons arising from…
A fully non-perturbative lattice determination of the up/down and strange quark masses is given for quenched QCD using both, $O(a)$ improved Wilson fermions and ordinary Wilson fermions. For the strange quark mass with $O(a)$ improved…
By using the Highly Improved Staggered Quark formalism to handle charm, strange and light valence quarks in full lattice QCD, and NRQCD to handle bottom valence quarks we are able to determine accurately ratios of the B meson…
I present preliminary results on the light quark masses from a partially quenched analysis of UKQCD's dynamical datasets.
We briefly summarize some results obtained by potential NRQCD in the non perturbative regime: 1) a systematic procedure to obtain the heavy quarkonium potential in the 1/m expansion (with explicit expressions up to O(1/m^2) in terms of…
