We present the results from a series of lattice simulations of the charmonium system using a highly-improved NRQCD action, both in the quenched approximation, and with n_f = 2 light dynamical quarks. The spectra show some evidence for…
We present results from a series of NRQCD simulations of the charmonium system, both in the quenched approximation and with n_f = 2 dynamical quarks. The spectra show evidence for quenching effects of ~10% in the S- and P-hyperfine…
We briefly review how precise determinations of the strong coupling constant and of the heavy quark masses may be obtained from heavy quarkonium. Such determinations are competitive with heavy quark masses extraction from other systems and…
We present results from a high precision NRQCD simulation of the quenched $\Upsilon$ system at $\beta = 6$. We demonstrate a variety of important lattice techniques, including the perturbative improvement of actions, tadpole improvement,…
The quark mass dependence of meson masses and decay constants in N_f=2 QCD is studied at a fixed gauge coupling with different dynamical quark masses. Partially Quenched Wilson Chiral Perturbation Theory (PQWchiPT) is applied to obtain the…
I review recent results for heavy-heavy spectroscopy using Lattice NRQCD. The NRQCD collaboration reports that spin-independent splittings for the $\Upsilon$ are scaling for a sensible range of $\beta$ values in the quenched approximation.…
Recent developments in heavy quarknoium physics are reviewed in brief, including (i) nonrelativistic QCD(NRQCD), (ii) the importance of color-octet $(Q\bar{Q})$ components in the decay and the production of a physical heavy quarkonium…
We present new results on $\Upsilon$ and $J/\Psi$ spectroscopy using Lattice NRQCD. Charmonium results at quenched $\beta$ = 5.7 show agreement with experiment within understood systematic errors. We compare bottomonium results at quenched…
We present a quenched lattice calculation of heavy-light meson decay constants, using non-relativistic (NRQCD) heavy quarks in the mass region of the $b$ quark and heavier, and clover-improved light quarks. The NRQCD Hamiltonian and the…
Lattice NRQCD has proven successful in describing the physics of the upsilon system and B-mesons, though some concerns arise when it is used in simulations of charm quarks. It is certainly possible that the NRQCD expansion is not converging…
We present an evaluation of heavy quarkonium states (bottomium and charmonium) from first principles. We use tree-level QCD (including relativistic corrections) and the full one-loop potential; nonperturbative effects are taken into account…
We present a new determination of the QCD strong coupling constant based on precise lattice calculations of the $\Upsilon$ spectrum. The largest systematic uncertainty in previous such determinations resulted from the absence of vacuum…
We revisit previous determination of the strong coupling constant from moments of quarkonium correlators in (2+1)-flavor QCD. We use previously calculated moments obtained with Highly Improved Staggered Quark (HISQ) action for five…
We calculate the dynamically generated up quark mass in some QCD-like theories with $F=3$ light flavors, obtained from supersymmetric QCD perturbed via anomaly mediated supersymmetry breaking. We match the low-energy effective theory to the…
During the past year the MILC Collaboration has continued its study of heavy-light meson decay constants with three dynamical quarks. Calculations have been extended to a second lattice spacing of about 0.09 fm. At this lattice spacing,…
We review the long term project of the ALPHA collaboration to compute in QCD the running coupling constant and quark masses at high energy scales in terms of low energy hadronic quantities. The adapted techniques required to numerically…
Although the spectra of heavy quarkonium systems has been successfully explained by certain QCD motivated potential models, their strong decays are difficult to deal with. We perform a microscopic calculation of charmonium strong decays…
Using the non-relativistic version of Borel sum rules, combined to the very accurate experimental information on the Charmonium and Upsilon spectra, we rigorously investigate the Euclidean mass of the Charm and Bottom quark. Our analysis is…
Recent progresses in lattice studies of heavy quark and quarkonium at non-zero temperature are discussed. Formulating a tail of spectral functions as a transport coefficient allows lattice determination of momentum diffusion coefficient…
Preliminary results on spectrum and decay constant of $B$ mesons from a quenched simulation at $\beta = 6.0$ on an $16^3\times48$ lattice are discussed. The heavy quark has been implemented using both an NRQCD and the static formulation,…
