A piece of the Standard Model presently undergoing intense experimental scrutiny is the Cabibbo Kobayashi Maskawa matrix. Several different measurements are planned to enrich the spectrum of experimental constraints and thus provide one of…
Some recent beyond Standard Model phenomenology is based on new strongly interacting dynamics of $SU(N)$ gauge fields coupled to various numbers of fermions. When $N=3$ these systems are analogues of QCD, although the fermion masses are…
Lattice techniques are the most reliable ones to investigate non-perturbative aspects of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) such as its phase diagram in the temperature-baryon density plane. They are, however, well-known to be beset with a…
I review the current status of lattice calculations of heavy quark quantities. Particular emphasis is placed on leptonic and semileptonic decay matrix elements.
Precision measurements of nucleons provide constraints on the Standard Model and can discern the signatures predicted for particles beyond the Standard Model (BSM). Knowing the Standard Model inputs to nucleon matrix elements will be…
The bag parameters and the decay constants of neutral B and K mesons were among the non-perturbative hadronic inputs to the classical CKM Unitarity Triangle Analysis. Thanks to the big amount of experimental information collected in the…
We evaluate the impact of recent developments in hadron phenomenology on extracting possible fundamental tensor interactions beyond the standard model. We show that a novel class of observables, including the chiral-odd generalized parton…
This talk reviews recent lattice QCD calculations relevant for quark flavor physics. Since lattice results must be accurate and precise to play a definitive role in phenomenology, the focus is on unquenched results of quantities which can…
I review recent developments in lattice QCD. I first give an overview of its formalism, and then discuss lattice discretizations of fermions. We then turn to a description of the quenched approximation and why it is disappearing as a…
Precise measurements of the lepton properties provide stringent tests of the Standard Model structure and accurate determinations of its parameters. We overview the present status of a few selected topics: lepton universality, QCD tests and…
Lattice QCD calculations of hadron structure are a valuable complement to many experimental programs as well as an indispensable tool to understand the dynamics of QCD. I present a focused review of a few representative topics chosen to…
The status of lattice calculations in the light hadron sector is reviewed. Special emphasis is given to recent lattice determinations of the mass of the strange quark. The impact of non-perturbative renormalization and control over lattice…
The decays and mixing of $K$ mesons are remarkably sensitive to the weak interactions of quarks and leptons at high energies. They provide important tests of the standard model at both first and second order in the Fermi constant $G_F$ and…
We discuss recent progress made studies of bulk thermodynamics of strongly interacting matter through lattice simulations of QCD with an almost physical light and strange quark mass spectrum. We present results on the QCD equation of state…
I review some of the things we have learned about large N gauge theories (and QCD at N=oo) from lattice calculations in recent years. I point to some open problems.
Lattice quantum chromodynamics provides first principles calculations for hadrons containing heavy quarks -- charm and bottom quarks. Their mass spectra, decay rates, and some hadronic matrix elements can be calculated on the lattice in a…
A concise review of the progress of lattice calculations at non-zero density since QM2006 is given, with emphasis on the high baryon density, low temperature domain. Possibilities for exploring densities higher than those studied by…
Our ability to resolve new physics effects is, largely, limited by the precision with which we calculate. The calculation of observables in the Standard (or a new physics) Model requires knowledge of associated hadronic contributions. The…
In the last few years, lattice QCD has made a dramatic progress in understanding the physics of hadrons containing heavy quarks, from the first principle. This review summarises the major achievements.
QCD at finite temperature and density is becoming increasingly important for various experimental programmes, ranging from heavy ion physics to astro-particle physics. The non-perturbative nature of non-abelian quantum field theories at…
