The static $B^{*}B\pi$ coupling, $\hat{g}_\chi$, a low energy constant in the leading order heavy meson chiral Lagrangian, is determined using $N_\mathrm{f} = 2$ lattice QCD. We use CLS ensembles with lattice spacings and pion masses down…
We employ a variational basis with a number of $\bar{q}q$ and $\pi\pi$ lattice interpolating fields with quantum numbers of the $\rho$ resonance to extract the discrete energy spectrum in a finite volume. In the elastic region, this…
