We highlight the progress, current status, and open challenges of QCD-driven physics, in
theory and in experiment. We discuss how the strong interaction is intimately connected to a …

Dramatic progress has been made over the last decade in the numerical study of quantum
chromodynamics (QCD) through the use of improved formulations of QCD on the lattice …

We present a lattice-QCD calculation of the light-quark connected contribution to window
observables associated with the leading-order hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to …

We present the result of lattice QCD calculation of the scalar, vector and tensor form factors
for the B→ K ℓ+ ℓ-decay, across the full physical range of momentum transfer. We use the …

We calculate the leptonic decay constants of heavy-light pseudoscalar mesons with charm
and bottom quarks in lattice quantum chromodynamics on four-flavor QCD gauge-field …

Statistical modeling is a key component in the extraction of physical results from lattice field
theory calculations. Although the general models used are often strongly motivated by …

We present a lattice QCD calculation of the B→ D l ν semileptonic decay form factors f+(q 2)
and f 0 (q 2) for the entire physical q 2 range. Nonrelativistic QCD bottom quarks and highly …

The rare decays B 0→ K* 0 μ+ μ-and B s→ ϕ μ+ μ-are now being observed with enough
precision to test Standard Model predictions. A full understanding of these decays requires …

We calculate—for the first time in three-flavor lattice QCD—the hadronic matrix elements of
all five local operators that contribute to neutral B 0-and B s-meson mixing in and beyond the …

We present a new lattice QCD analysis of heavy-quark pseudoscalar-pseudoscalar
correlators, using gluon configurations from the MILC Collaboration that include vacuum …
