We present recent results for the prediction of the Bs lifetime difference from lattice Heavy Quark Effective Theory simulations. In order to get a next-to-leading order result we have calculated the matching between QCD and HQET and the…

The present status of the theoretical estimates of the difference between the widths of the neutral Bs-mesons and of the B-meson lifetime ratios is reviewed. In particular, the lattice results for the matrix elements of the relevant (delta…

We extend our previous studies to calculate the B meson B parameters B_B and B_S on the lattice, and present an update of the results for the B_s meson width difference. We perform an extensive study of systematic errors in the quenched…

The calculation of QCD corrections to the width difference Delta Gamma in the B_s meson system is presented. The next-to-leading order corrections reduce the dependence on the renormalization scale significantly and allow for a meaningful…

We compute the matrix element of the four-quark operator $\Op_S$ = $\bar{b}(1-\gamma_5) s \bar{b} (1-\gamma_5) s$ in the $B_s-\bar{B}_s$ mixing on the lattice using NRQCD, which gives a leading contribution in the calculation of the width…

We discuss the calculation of the width difference $\Delta\Gamma_{B_s}$ between the $B_s$ mass eigenstates to next-to-leading order in the heavy quark expansion. $1/m_b$-corrections are estimated to reduce the leading order result by…

We give an update on the lifetime difference of $B_s$ mesons which accounts for recent lattice bag parameter results, and obtain $(\Delta\Gamma/\Gamma)_{B_s}=(9.3^{+3.4}_{-4.6})%$. We then review the current theoretical uncertainties and…

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 $B_K=0.74 +- 0.04 +- 0.05$,…

We extract the matrix elements of four quark operators O_{L,S} relevant to the B_s and \bar B_s life time difference from QCD sum rules. We find the vacuum saturation approximation works reasonably well, i.e., within 10%. We discuss the…

We use the heavy quark expansion to investigate the width difference $\Delta\Gamma_{B_s}$ between the $B_s$ mass eigenstates. The corrections of ${\cal O}(\Lambda_{QCD}/m_b)$ and ${\cal O}(m_s/m_b)$ to the leading order expression in the…

We update the Standard-Model predictions for several quantities related to $B_s - \bar B_s$ and $B_d - \bar B_d$ mixing. The mass and width differences in the $B_s$ system read $ \Delta M_s^{\rm SM} = (17.3 \pm 2.6) ps^{-1}$ and $\Delta…

Predicting the $B_s^0-\bar{B}_s^0$ width difference $\Delta\Gamma_s$ relies on the heavy quark expansion and on hadronic matrix elements of $\Delta B=2$ operators. We present the first lattice QCD results for matrix elements of the…

We present lattice QCD results for the matrix elements of $R_2$ and other dimension-7, $\Delta B = 2$ operators relevant for calculations of $\Delta \Gamma_s$, the $B_s-\bar{B}_s$ width difference. We have computed correlation functions…

We discuss neutral B_{s,d} meson mixing and b-hadron lifetimes from the perspective of recent lattice calculations. In particular, we consider matrix elements which can be combined with measured \Delta M_{s,d} to constrain |V_{td}|, the…

We present a calculation of $1/m_b^2$ corrections to the lifetime differences of $B_s$ mesons in the heavy-quark expansion. We find that they are small to significantly affect $\Delta\Gamma$ $(B_s)$ and present the result for lifetime…

We present our results of lattice calculations of $B$ parameters, which parameterize $\Delta B$=2 transition amplitudes together with the leptonic decay constant. Calculations are made in the quenched approximation at $\beta$=5.7, 5.9, 6.0…

We extend the theoretical prediction for the width difference $\Delta \Gamma_q$ in the mixing of neutral $B$ mesons in the Standard Model to next-to-next-to-leading order in $\alpha_s$. To this aim we calculate three-loop diagrams with two…

We determine hadronic matrix elements relevant for the mass and width differences, $\Delta M_s$ & $\Delta \Gamma_s$ in the $B^0_s - \bar{B^0_s}$ meson system using fully unquenched lattice QCD. We employ the MILC collaboration gauge…

We discuss recent results on the excitation spectra of B and D-mesons obtained in the framework of non-relativistic lattice QCD in the quenched approximation. The results allow for the determination of the $\msbar$-mass of…
