We suggest a novel method to determine the sign of cos(2 beta) in the decays B --> psi K, by creating interference between KL and KS final states via ``regeneration,'' that is propagation through a matter target region to convert some KL to…

Existing lattice data on the QCD phase transition are analyzed in renormalized perturbation theory. In quenched QCD it is found that T_c scales for lattices with only 3 time slices, and that T_c/Lambda_msbar=1.15 \pm 0.05. A preliminary…

In this paper we study O(2000) (quenched) lattice configurations from the APE collaboration, for different lattice volumes and for 6.0 \le beta \le 6.4 using both the Wilson and the SW-Clover fermion actions. We determine the light hadronic…

We present the preliminary result of the calculation of $B_B$ parameter using lattice NRQCD. The calculation is performed on a $16^3 \times 48$ quenched lattice at $\beta=5.9$ with clover light quark. The use of lattice NRQCD enables us to…

We compute charm and bottom quark masses in the quenched approximation and in the continuum limit of lattice QCD. We make use of a step scaling method, previously introduced to deal with two scale problems, that allows to take the continuum…

We perform the first study for the static penta-quark (5Q) potential in lattice QCD with $\beta$=6.0 and $16^3 \times 32$ at the quenched level. Accurate results of the 5Q potential are extracted from the 5Q Wilson loop using the smearing…

Preliminary results from the MILC collaboration for $f_B$, $f_{B_s}$, $f_D$, $f_{D_s}$ and their ratios are presented. We compute in the quenched approximation at $\beta=6.3$, 6.0 and 5.7 with Wilson light quarks and static and Wilson heavy…

We constrain the inverse moment of the $B$-meson light-cone distribution amplitude (LCDA), $\lambda_B$ in heavy quark effective theory, using form factor estimates from Lattice QCD collaboration. The estimation of the parameter $\lambda_B$…

We study the $B \to K^{(\ast)} \nu \bar{\nu}$ decays within the Standard Model (SM) by using the relevant transition form factors obtained from the covariant confined quark model (CCQM) developed by us. The $B \to K$ and $B\to K^\ast$…

We calculate the kaon B-parameter, B_K, to next-to-leading order in staggered chiral perturbation theory. We find expressions for partially quenched QCD with three sea quarks, quenched QCD, and full QCD with m_u = m_d but not equal to m_s.…

We report on our ongoing effort to understand quenched lattice QCD at finite baryon number density. The quenched theory is sensitive to the baryon mass both at strong coupling and in the scaling region. However, we find that the quenched…

We review briefly recent studies of the Lambda(1405) spectrum in Lattice QCD. Ordinary three-quark pictures of the Lambda(1405) in quenched Lattice QCD fail to reproduce the mass of the experimental value, which seems to support the…
