Study of intermediate states in the inclusive semileptonic $B \rightarrow X_c l ν$ decay structure function

We analyze the inclusive semileptonic $B \to X_c \ellν$ structure functions in 2+1-flavor lattice QCD. The Möbius domain-wall fermion action is used for light, strange, charm and bottom quarks. The structure function receives contributions from various exclusive modes, including the dominant S-wave states $D^{(*)}_s$ as well as the P-wave states $D_s^{**}$. We can identify them in the lattice data, from which we put some constraints on the $B_s \to D_s^{**}\ellν$ form factors.

$B\!\to\!D^{(*)}\ellν$ form factors from lattice QCD with relativistic heavy quarks

We report on our calculation of the B \to D^(*) \ell νform factors in 2+1 flavor lattice QCD. The Möbius domain-wall action is employed for light, strange, charm and bottom quarks. At lattice cutoffs 1/a \sim 2.4, 3.6 and 4.5 GeV, we simulate bottom quark masses up to 0.7/a to control discretization errors. The pion mass is as low as 230 MeV. We extrapolate the form factors to the continuum limit and physical quark masses, and make a comparison with recent phenomenological analyses.

Phenomenological implications of the intrinsic charm in the $Z$ boson production at the LHC

In this paper we study the $Z$, $Z+$ jet, $Z+c$ and $Z+c+$ jet production in $pp$ collisions at the LHC considering different models for an intrinsic charm content of the proton. We analyse the impact of the intrinsic charm in the rapidity and transverse momentum distributions for these different processes. Our results indicated that differently from the other processes, the $Z+c$ cross section is strongly affected by the presence of the intrinsic charm. Moreover, we propose the analysis of the ratios $R(Z+c/Z) \equiv σ(Z+c)/σ(Z)$ and $R(Z+c/Z+\mbox{jet}) \equiv σ(Z+c)/σ(Z+\mbox{jet})$ and demonstrate that these observables can be used as a probe of the intrinsic charm.
