The $\eta$-$\eta^\prime$ pseudoscalar mixing angle and the gluonium content of the $\eta^\prime$ meson are deduced from an updated phenomenological analysis of $V\to P\gamma$ and $J/\psi\to VP$ decays. In absence of gluonium, the value of…

We discuss first the flavor mixing of the quarks, using the texture zero mass matrices. Then we study a similar model for the mass matrices of the leptons. We are able to relate the mass eigenvalues of the charged leptons and of the…

The key assumption used recently by Feldmann, Kroll and Stich [Phys.Rev. D58, 114006 (1998)] that the decay constants f_\eta, and f_\eta ' of the respective eta and eta ' mesons in the quark flavor basis follow the pattern of strange and…

We present a calculation of the $\eta$-$\eta'$ mixing in the framework of large-$N_c$ chiral perturbation theory. A general expression for the $\eta$-$\eta'$ mixing at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) is derived, including…

The low-energy sector of QCD with $N_f = 2\!+\!1$ dynamical quark flavors at non-vanishing chemical potential and temperature is studied with a non-perturbative functional renormalization group method. The analysis is performed in different…

We present preliminary results for the masses and decay constants of the $\eta$ and $\eta^\prime$ mesons using CLS $N_f = 2+1$ ensembles. One of the major challenges in these calculations are the large statistical fluctuations due to…

Flavor-changing neutral currents (FCNC) are studied on the basis of a ``democratic seesa'' mass matrix model, which yields a singular enhancement of the top-quark mass m_t and can give reasonable quark masses and CKM matrix elements. The…

We present an update on our calculation of the short-distance $D^0$-meson mixing hadronic matrix elements. The analysis is performed on the MILC collaboration's $N_f=2+1$ asqtad configurations. We use asqtad light valence quarks and the…

We perform a thorough analysis of the $\eta-\eta'$ mixing effects on the $\Lambda_b\rightarrow \Lambda \eta^{(')}$ decays based on the perturbative QCD (PQCD) factorization approach. Branching ratios, up-down and direct $CP$ asymmetries are…

We report on our recent study of flavor singlet matrix elements calculated with the wall source method without gauge fixing. Results are presented for the mass difference between $\eta^{\prime}$ and pseudoscalar octet mesons, the $\pi$-N…

We investigate the mixing between flavor-singlet light meson and charmonium operators in the S-wave channels, i.e. pseudo-scalar and vector channel, at two different pion masses. We measure statistically significant non-zero correlations…

We include the $\eta_c$ meson into the $\eta$-$\eta'$-$G$ mixing formalism constructed in our previous work, where $G$ represents the pseudoscalar gluball. The mixing angles in this tetramixing matrix are constrained by theoretical and…

During the last years, the ALPHA collaboration has been developing and implementing a method based on Heavy Quark Effective Theory (HQET) to compute B-mesons observables through lattice simulations. Thanks to a non-perturbative matching to…

We calculate the flavor-singlet contribution to the $B\to\eta^{(\prime)}$ transition form factors from the gluonic content of the $\eta^{(\prime)}$ meson in the large-recoil region using the perturbative QCD approach. The formulation for…

We present an improved analysis of our lattice data for the $\eta$--$\eta'$ system, including a correction of the relevant correlation functions for residual topological finite size effects and employing consistent chiral and continuum…

We discuss our recently proposed S3(down)xS3(up) flavour-permutation-symmetric mixing observables, giving expressions for them in terms of (moduli-squared) of the mixing matrix elements. We outline their successful use in providing…

We stress that the observed pattern of flavor mixings can be partly interpreted by the quark mass hierarchy without the assumption of specific quark mass matrices. The quantitatively proper relations between the Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix…

We show that hadronic matrix elements can be extracted from lattice simulations with background fields that arise from operator exponentiation. Importantly, flavour-singlet matrix elements can be evaluated without requiring the computation…

The axial-vector Ward-Takahashi identity is used to derive mass formulae for neutral pseudoscalar mesons. Flavour symmetry breaking entails non-ideal flavour content for these states. Adding that the \eta^\prime is not a Goldstone mode,…

It has been realized for a long time that knowing the \eta and \eta' wave functions in terms of quark and gluon components probes our understanding of non-perturbative QCD dynamics. Great effort has been given to this challenge -- yet no…
