Quark Flavour & Lattice QCD

SLIDE 4

Motivation

  • Precision predictions & measurements of quark flavour

interactions

  • Is the Standard Model description of EWSB complete?
  • If not, quark flavour measurements constrain models of new

physics

  • Experimental measurements of hadron decays: increasing

precision, new modes

  • Precision QCD calculations required in order to make

inferences about quark interactions

Lattice QCD

  • Use methods of effective field theory and renormalization

to turn a quantum physics problem into a statistical physics problem

  • Quarks propagating through strongly interacting QCD

glue + sea of quark-antiquark bubbles

  • Numerically evaluate path integrals using Monte Carlo

methods: importance sampling & correlation functions

  • Numerical challenge: solving M x = b where M is big and

has a diverging condition number as amq ➙ 0 (vanishing lattice spacing × light quark mass)

Implications for Vcb

  • Removal of theory assumptions

resolves inclusive/exclusive tension, at least in Belle data

  • Look forward to BaBar analysis
  • Look forward to LQCD results at

non-zero recoil

Conclusions

  • Lattice field theory: nonperturbative, numerical

approach connecting hadronic observables and fundamental quark interactions

  • Lattice QCD plays an important role in studies of

quark flavour

  • Case study: B → D* l ν
  • Projects underway: more B semileptonic decay

form factors, B mixing matrix elements, …
