Light quark masses are computed for Kogut-Susskind fermions by evaluating non-perturbatively the renormalization factor for bilinear quark operators. Calculations are carried out in the quenched approximation at \beta=6.0, 6.2, and 6.4. For…

First results are obtained for B mesons using a heavy propagator calculated using NRQCD, and a light Wilson propagator. Results from 13 quenched configurations of size 16^3 x 48 at \beta = 6.0 give a value for f_{B} of less than 200 Mev and…
We study the quenched chiral behavior of the pion with mass as low as $\approx 180$ MeV. The calculation is done on a quenched lattice of size $16^3\times 28$ and $a = 0.2$ fm with 80 configurations using overlap fermions and an improved…
In an earlier work, the charge (vector) and matter (scalar) radial distributions of heavy-light mesons were measured in the quenched approximation on a 16^3 times 24 lattice with a quark-gluon coupling of 5.7, a lattice spacing of 0.17 fm,…

Vector hybrid states with light quarks $u,d,s$ are investigated via QCD sum rules. The results show that the masses of the $q{\bar q}g$ $(q=u,d)$, $q{\bar s}g$, and $s{\bar s}g$ states with $J^{PC}=1^{--}$ are about 2.3-2.4, 2.3-2.5, and…
