Quenched chiral perturbation is used to study the decay constants for heavy-light mesons beyond the leading order in 1/M. The results are used to estimate the error in quenched lattice calculations of the decay constants. For the double…
We make a quenched lattice simulation of hadron spectroscopy at beta=6.2 with the Wilson action non-perturbatively improved. With respect to the unimproved case, the estimate of the lattice spacing is less influenced by the choice of input…
