The potentials between two B-mesons are computed in the heavy-quark limit using quenched lattice QCD at $m_\pi\sim 400~{\rm MeV}$. Non-zero central potentials are clearly evident in all four spin-isospin channels, (I,s_l) = (0,0) , (0,1) ,…
We present lattice calculations of kaon matrix elements with domain wall fermions. Using lattices with beta=5.85, 6.0, and 6.3, we estimate B_K(approx 2 GeV)=0.628(47) in quenched QCD which is consistent with previous calculations. At…
We report on a calculation of $B_K$ with two-flavor dynamical overlap fermions on a $16^3 \times 32$ lattice at $a\sim 0.12$ fm. The results are compared with the PQChPT prediction of quark mass dependence. The systematic errors due to…
Finite density lattice QCD usually relies on extrapolations in baryon chemical potential ($\mu_B$), be it Taylor expansion, T' expansion (\cite{Borsanyi:2021sxv}) or analytical continuation. However, their range of validity is difficult to…
We compute the decays ${B\to D^\ast_0}$ and ${B\to D^\ast_2}$ with finite masses for the $b$ and $c$ quarks. We first discuss the spectral properties of both the $B$ meson as a function of its momentum and of the $D^\ast_0$ and $D^\ast_2$…
