Twisted mass lattice QCD (tmQCD), generalised to four Wilson quark flavours, can be used for the computation of some weak matrix elements related to $\Delta I=1/2$ transitions. Besides eliminating unphysical zero modes, tmQCD may alleviate…
We show that the application of twisted mass QCD (tmQCD) with four (Wilson) quark flavours to the computation of lattice weak matrix elements relevant to $\Delta I=1/2$ transitions has important advantages: the renormalisation of $K \to…
We report on a non-perturbative study of the scale-dependent renormalization factors of a multiplicatively renormalizable basis of Delta B=2 parity-odd four-fermion operators in quenched lattice QCD. We also present some preliminary results…
We present the results of a precision computation of B_K with Wilson fermions. Simulations are performed at different lattice spacings, enabling continuum limit extrapolations. Two different twisted mass QCD (tmQCD) regularisations are…
I present quenched, lattice QCD calculations of the hadronic matrix elements relevant for B^0_{d(s)}-\bar B^0_{d(s)} and K^0-\bar K^0 mixing and briefly review the status of lattice predictions.
We present some preliminary results for $B_K$ at $\beta=6.0$, using the twisted mass QCD formalism for the computation of bare matrix elements of the $\Delta S=2$ operator. The main advantage of the method is that mixing with other $d=6$…
Twisted mass QCD (tmQCD) has been introduced as a solution to the problem of unphysical fermion zero modes in lattice QCD with quarks of the Wilson type. We here argue that O(a) improvement of the tmQCD action and simple quark bilinear…
A new method is suggested to calculate the $B\to \pi\pi$ hadronic matrix elements from QCD light-cone sum rules. To leading order in $\alpha_s$ and $1/m_b$, the sum rule reproduces a factorizable matrix element, in accordance with the…
We use lattice QCD to calculate the B-mixing hadronic matrix elements for a basis of effective four-quark operators that spans the space of all possible contributions in, and beyond, the Standard Model. We present results for the…
We review recent work by the ALPHA and UKQCD Collaborations where masses and matrix elements were computed in lattice QCD using Schr\"odinger functional boundary conditions and where the strange quark mass was determined in the quenched…
The charmless bottom meson decays are systematically investigated based on an approximate six quark operator effective Hamiltonian from perturbative QCD. It is shown that within this framework the naive QCD factorization method provides a…
In the heavy-quark limit, the hadronic matrix elements entering nonleptonic $B$-meson decays into two light mesons can be calculated from first principles including ``nonfactorizable'' strong-interaction corrections. The $B\to\pi K,\pi\pi$…
The $B_K$ parameter is computed in quenched lattice QCD with Wilson twisted mass fermions. Two variants of tmQCD are used; in both of them the relevant $\Delta S = 2$ four-fermion operator is renormalised multiplicatively. The…
The method of QCD sum rules has proven to be particularly useful in heavy quark physics, where a small distance scale is provided by the inverse heavy quark mass. We present two new examples for the application of this method to B-physics:…
Simulations that use the clover action in quenched QCD calculations have a lower limit to the quark mass that can be reached, because of the fluctuations caused by exceptional configurations. From this low statistics study, we find that the…
Simple transformation formulas between fermion matrices and observables, and numerical values of quark matrices, are obtained on a particular weak basis with one quark matrix diagonal and the other with vanishing elements 1-1, 1-3 and 3-1,…
Accurate measurements of K, D and B meson mixing amplitudes provide stringent constraints in the Unitary Triangle analysis, as well as useful bounds on New Physics scales. Lattice QCD provides a non perturbative tool to compute the hadronic…
We presents results for the matrix elements of a variety of four-fermion operators calculated using quenched Wilson fermions. Our simulations are done on 170 lattices of size $32^3 x 64$ at $\beta = 6.0$. We find $B_K=0.74 +- 0.04 +- 0.05$,…
Nucleon matrix elements of various four-quark operators are evaluated in quenched lattice QCD using Wilson fermions. Some of these operators give rise to twist-four contributions to nucleon structure functions. Furthermore, they bear…
We calculate the QCD corrected effective Hamiltonian for $B\bbar$--Mixing in heavy quark effective theory including corrections of the order $\Lambda_{QCD} / m_b$. The matrix elements of the subleading operators are estimated using the…
