We argue that high-precision lattice QCD is now possible, for the first time, because of a new improved staggered quark discretization. We compare a wide variety of nonperturbative calculations in QCD with experiment, and find agreement to…
We review recent progress on heavy flavor physics from lattice QCD.
The present status of lattice calculations of $f_D$, $f_B$ and some mass splittings are discussed. When one includes the uncertainties due to discretization errors, the results do not yet have a sufficient precision to be relevant to…
Matrix elements of heavy-light flavor currents play an important role in modern particle physics and precise theory predictions are of interest for phenomenology. Heavy Quark Effective Theory (HQET) is a valuable tool to obtain such…
The direct searches for Beyond Standard Model (BSM) particles have been constraining their mass scale to the extent where it is now becoming consensual that such particles are likely to be above the energy reach of the LHC. Meanwhile, the…
I summarize recent lattice results on QCD at finite temperatures and densities. Studies on the nature of the QCD transition at the physical point, continuum extra polations of thermodynamic quantities, and new calculations of hadronic…
$B$-physics is one of the most promising windows to find new physics in the flavor sector. One key ingredient to these searches are precise theoretical predictions derived from the Standard Model. Focusing at the nonperturbative QCD…
I briefly introduce the methods by which lattice QCD predictions for RHIC are obtained. Next I deal with lattice determinations of strangeness production and event-to-event fluctuations of conserved quantities. I also present a new…
Precision measurements of flavour observables provide powerful tests of many extensions of the Standard Model. This contribution covers a range of flavour measurements of $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ transitions, several of which are in tension…
We demonstrate that at finite density and sufficiently high temperatures, phase-quenched (PQ) lattice simulations combined with perturbation theory provide a new precision approach to determining the thermodynamics of QCD across a wide arc…
In this review article, we highlight the impact of models incorporating flavour symmetries on charged lepton flavour violating (LFV) processes. Flavour symmetries provide a natural approach to explain the peculiar mass hierarchies and…
This talk gives an overview of how lattice QCD calculations are influencing quark flavor physics. The first part of the talk focuses on the climb to higher precision; the second part surveys views along less-trodden paths.
Ordinary matter is described by six fundamental parameters: three couplings (gravitational, electromagnetic and strong) and three masses: the electron's (m_e) and those of the up (m_u) and down (m_d) quarks. An additional mass enters…
We use a relativistic highly improved staggered quark action to discretize charm quarks on the lattice. We calculate the masses and the dispersion relation for heavy-heavy and heavy-light meson states, and show that for lattice spacings…
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…
Lattice quantum chromodynamics has proven to be an indispensable method to determine nonperturbative strong contributions to weak decay processes. In this white paper for the Snowmass community planning process we highlight achievements and…
Review of results from lattice QCD of relevance to standard-model phenomenology, to appear in Annual Review of Nuclear and Particle Science. KEY WORDS: hadron masses, quark mixing (CKM) matrix, weak matrix elements, strong coupling…
Lattice results for heavy light matrix elements are reviewed and some of their implications are very briefly discussed. Despite the fact that in most cases the lattice results for weak matrix elements at the moment have only a modest…
After the completion of the Standard Model (SM) through the Higgs discovery particle physicists are waiting for the discovery of new particles either directly with the help of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) or indirectly through quantum…
After years of silence we should witness in the rest of this decade and in the next decade the revival of kaon flavour physics. This is not only because of the crucial measurements of the branching ratios for the rare decays…
