Isospin-1/2 charmed axial-vector $D^*\pi-D^*\eta-D^*_s\bar{K}$ scattering amplitudes are computed, along with interactions in several other $I=1/2$ $J^P$ channels. Using lattice QCD, we work at a light-quark mass corresponding to…

We present the first direct evidence that quenched QCD differs from full QCD in the chiral ($m_q \rightarrow 0$) limit, as predicted by chiral perturbation theory, from our quenched lattice QCD simulations at $\beta = 6/g^2 = 6.0$. We…
We study the $S$-wave $D\bar{D}^*(I=0)$ scattering at four different pion masses $m_\pi$ ranging from 250 MeV to 417 MeV from $N_f=2$ lattice QCD. Three energy levels $E_{2,3,4}$ are extracted at each $m_\pi$. The analysis of $E_{2,3}$…
We calculate the hadronic coupling constants $g_{NN\pi}$ and $g_{\rho\pi\pi}$ in QCD, including dynamical quarks in the framework of staggered fermions in the lattice approach. For the nucleon--pion coupling we obtain $g_{NN\pi} = 13.8 \pm…
We investigate the coupling constant $g_{\sigma\pi\pi}$ for the hadronic decay $\sigma\to\pi\pi$ only using the relevant three-point function, which is evaluated by the moving-wall source technique with a pretty good noise-to-signal ratio.…
We present a determination of the decay constants of the $D$ and $D_s$ mesons from lattice QCD, each with a total error of about 2%, approximately a factor of three better than previous calculations. We have been able to achieve this…
We compute the strong coupling constant $G_{B^{**} B \pi} \; (G_{D^{**} D \pi})$, where $B^{**}$ ($D^{**}$) is the $0^+$ $P-$wave $b \bar q \; (c \bar q)$ state, by QCD sum rules and by light-cone sum rules. The two methods give compatible…
