We have computed $ B_K $ with staggered fermions, using two different methods: both in the one spin trace form and two spin trace form. Renormalized results in both forms are in good agreement. The numerical simulations were performed on a…
We discuss the impact of using one-loop matching on the calculation of $B_K$ using HYP-smeared improved staggered fermions. We give estimates of size of the truncation errors from the missing two-loop corrections.
We report updated results for $B_K$ calculated using HYP-smeared staggered fermions on the MILC asqtad 2+1 flavor lattices. We use four different lattice spacings ($a \approx$ 0.12, 0.09, 0.06 and 0.045 fm) to control the continuum…
We give an update on our calculation of $B_K$ using HYP-smeared valence staggered quarks. We have results for $B_K$ at tree-level on several coarse MILC lattices ($a\approx 0.12 $fm) and one of the fine lattices ($a\approx 0.09 $fm), using…
