Quenched chiral perturbation theory for heavy-light mesons

Abstract: Quenched chiral perturbation theory is extended to include heavy-light mesons. Non-analytic corrections to the decay constants, Isgur-Wise function and masses and mixing of heavy mesons are then computed. The results are used to estimate the error due to quenching in lattice computations of these quantities. For reasonable choices of parameters, it is found that quenching has a strong effect on fB s /fB, reducing it by as much as 28%. The errors are essentially negligible for the Isgur-Wise function and the mi… Show more

“…Errors coming from the extrapolation to the chiral limit are also quite small. Moreover, for this quantity, the error coming from the quenched approximation was estimated to be negligible [34]. Thus the most important source of systematic error in our results is the determination of the renormalization constants, which are known so far only in one-loop lattice perturbation theory.…”

“…Next, using chiral perturbation theory for heavy-light mesons [9,10], we extrapolate M hl to κ l = κ c . We do not include chiral logarithms in our fits since the light quark masses used in the extrapolations are relatively heavy, κ l ≈ κ s .…”

“…These constants result from higher order terms in the expression for the current L µ and in the heavy-light meson Lagrangian. Their structure is discussed by Booth [9]. The quenched result for f Qq (q = u, d) is obtained from Eq.…”
