Lattice study of the decay (B)over-bar(0)->p(+)l(-)(v)over-bar(l): Model-independent determination of vertical bar V-ub vertical bar
1996
We present results of a lattice computation of the vector and axial-vector current matrix elements relevant for the semileptonic decay (B) over bar(0) --> rho(+)l(-)(l). The computations are performed in the quenched approximation of lattice QCD on a 24(3) x 48 lattice at beta = 6.2, using an O(a) improved fermionic action. Our principal result is for the differential decay rate, d Gamma/dq(2), for the decay (B) over bar(0) --> rho(+)l(-)(l), in a region beyond the charm endpoint, allowing a model-independent extraction of \V-ub\ from experimental measurements. Heavy quark symmetry relations between radiative and semileptonic decays of (B) over bar mesons into light vector mesons are also d…
First lattice study of semileptonic decays of Lambda(b) and Xi(b) baryons
1998
We present the results of the first lattice study of semileptonic decays of baryons containing a b quark. Predictions for the decay distributions are given and the Isgur-Wise functions for heavy baryons are computed for values of the velocity transfer up to about omega = 1.2. The computations are performed on a 24(3) x 48 lattice at beta = 6.2 using the Sheikholeslami-Wohlert action in the quenched approximation.
