We formulate Non-Relativistic Quantum Chromodynamics (NRQCD) on a lattice which is boosted relative to the usual discretization frame. Moving NRQCD (mNRQCD) allows us to treat the momentum for the heavy quark arising from the frame choice…

Lattice NRQCD with leading finite lattice spacing errors removed is used to simulate heavy-heavy vector decay constants. Quenched simulations are performed at three values of the coupling and fifteen values of the quark mass. The improved…
