Weak Decays of Heavy-Light Mesons on the Lattice: Semi-Leptonic Formfactors
We report results (on an intermediate statistics sample) of a study of weak
semi-leptonic formfactors of and decays, addressing the uncertainties
from mass extrapolations to chiral and to heavy quarks. Moreover, we present a
nonperturbative test to the LMK current renormalization scheme for vector
current {\it transition} matrix elements and find remarkable agreement.Comment: 13 pages, uuencoded, updated table
Heavy-light baryonic mass splittings from the lattice
We present lattice estimates of the mass of the heavy-light baryons
and obtained using propagating heavy quarks. For

extrapolation to the continuum limit and in the quenched approximation.Comment: 3 pages postscript, Contribution to Lattice'9
Semileptonic Decays of D and B Mesons
We report results of our ongoing investigation concerning semileptonic decays
of heavy pseudoscalar mesons into pseudoscalar and vector mesons. Particular
attention is paid to uncertainties in the and the heavy quark mass
dependence of formfactors. Moreover we present a non-perturbative test to the
LMK current renormalization scheme for vector current transition matrix
elements and find remarkable agreement.Comment: 3 pages, uuencoded, contribution to Lat 9
Semileptonic Decays of Heavy Mesons: A Status Report
We present intermediate results on our ongoing investigation concerning
semileptonic decays of heavy pseudoscalar mesons into pseudoscalar and vector
mesons. The corresponding formfactors are evaluated at several momenta and
appropriate combinations of four light and four heavy quarks, which are chosen
to allow for an extrapolation into the B Meson region. In order to obtain clear
groundstate signals we apply gauge invariant ``Wuppertal'' smearing to the
quarks. The analysis is based on 32 quenched gauge configurations of size at , with Wilson fermions.Comment: 3 pages, uuencoded, contribution to Lat 9
Beautiful Baryons from Lattice QCD
We perform a lattice study of heavy baryons, containing one () or
two -quarks (). Using the quenched approximation we obtain for the
mass of
The mass splitting between the and the B-meson is found to increase
by about 20\% if the light quark mass is varied from the chiral limit to the
strange quark mass.Comment: 11 pages, Figures obtained upon request from [email protected]
Light Quark Masses with Dynamical Wilson Fermions
We determine the masses of the light and the strange quarks in the
-scheme using our high-statistics lattice simulation of QCD with
dynamical Wilson fermions. For the light quark mass we find

simulations. For the strange quark, in a sea of two dynamical light quarks, we
obtain .Comment: 10 pages (latex file, uses epsf-style
Phenomenology with Wilson fermions using smeared sources
We investigate the use of two types of non-local (``smeared'') sources for
quark propagators in quenched lattice QCD at using Wilson fermions
at and . We present results for the hadron mass spectrum,
meson decay constants, quark masses, the chiral condensate and the quark
distribution amplitude of the pion. The use of smeared sources leads to a
considerable improvement over previous results. We find a disturbing
discrepancy between the baryon spectra obtained using Wuppertal and wall
sources. We find good signals in the ratio of correlators used to calculate the
quark mass and the chiral condensate and show that the extrapolation to the
chiral limit is smooth.Comment: (revised), 57 pages (29 pages of PostScript in landscape mode, 765924

The Leptonic Decay Constants of Mesons and the Lattice Resolution
We present a high statistics study of the leptonic decay constant of
heavy pseudoscalar mesons using propagating heavy Wilson quarks within the
quenched approximation, on lattices covering sizes from about 0.7~fm to 2~fm.
Varying between 5.74 and 6.26 we observe a sizeable dependence of
when one uses the quark field normalization that was suggested by
Kronfeld and Mackenzie, compared with the weaker dependence observed for the
standard relativistic norm. The two schemes come into agreement when one
extrapolates to . The extrapolations needed to reach the
continuum quantity introduce large errors and lead to the value
~GeV in the quenched approximation. This suggests that much more
effort will be needed to obtain an accurate lattice prediction for .Comment: 11 pages Latex + 5 tables + 8 postscript figures, unix shell archive,

Towards the glueball spectrum of full QCD
We present first results on masses of the scalar and tensor glueballs as well
as of the torelon from simulations of QCD with two light flavours of Wilson
fermions. The gauge configurations of extent 16^3*32 at beta = 5.6 and kappa =
0.156, 0.157 and 0.1575 have been generated as part of the SESAM collaboration
programme. The present lattice resolutions correspond to 1/a = 2.0-2.3 GeV and
ratios m(pi)/m(rho) = 0.83, 0.76 and 0.71, respectively. Studies on larger
lattice volumes and closer to the chiral limit are in progress.Comment: 4 pages, LaTeX, espcrc2 and epsf styles required, 4 epsf figures,

Scaling Study of the Leptonic Decay Constants of Heavy-Light Mesons: A Consumers Report on Improvement Factors
A high statistics calculation, performed at and ,
enables us to study the variation of the leptonic decay constants of
heavy pseudoscalar mesons with the lattice spacing . We observe only a weak
dependence when the standard normalization is used for the
quark fields, whereas application of the Kronfeld-Mackenzie normalization
induces a stronger variation with . Increasing the meson mass from
to this situation becomes even more pronounced.Comment: Lattice 93, 3 pages Latex, 2 postscript figures (epsf style
