Phenomenology of static-light mesons from unquenched lattice QCD calculations

We present results for the static-light meson from unquenched lattice QCD. The unquenched gauge configurations were generated using the non-perturbatively improved clover action. At the fixed lattice spacing of 0.1 fm the lightest sea quark mass used is a third of the strange quark mass. A comparison is made between heavy-light chiral perturbation theory and the f_B^(static) decay constant. The mass of the bottom quark is also reported: m_b(m_b) = 4.25(2)(11) GeV, where the first error is statistical and the last error is the systematic uncertainty.

An unquenched lattice QCD calculation of the mass of the bottom quark

We compute the b quark mass from dynamical lattice QCD with clover quarks. The calculation is done at a fixed lattice spacing with sea quark masses as low as half the strange quark mass. Our final result is m_b(m_b} = 4.25(2)(11) GeV, where the first error is statistical and the last error is the systematic uncertainty.
