Heavy Quark Physics From Lattice QCD
We review the application of lattice QCD to the phenomenology of b- and
c-quarks. After a short discussion of the lattice techniques used to evaluate
hadronic matrix elements and the corresponding systematic uncertainties, we
summarise results for leptonic decay constants, B--Bbar mixing, semileptonic
and rare radiative decays. A discussion of the determination of heavy quark
effective theory parameters is followed by an explanation of the difficulty in
applying lattice methods to exclusive nonleptonic decays.Comment: 52 pages LaTeX with 10 eps files. Requires: hfsprocl.sty (included)
