low-energy constant

$|V_{us}|$ from $K_{\ell 3}$ decay and four-flavor lattice QCD

Using highly improved staggered quark (HISQ) Nf=2+1+1 MILC ensembles with five different values of the lattice spacing, including four ensembles with physical quark masses, we perform the most precise computation to date of the K→πℓν vector form …

Radiative Contribution to the Composite-Higgs Potential in a Two-Representation Lattice Model

Working in a two-representation lattice gauge theory that is close to a composite-Higgs model, we calculate the low-energy constant CLR which controls the contribution of the electroweak gauge bosons to the Higgs potential. In QCD, the corresponding …

Radiative contribution to the effective potential in composite Higgs models from lattice gauge theory

We develop methods to calculate the electroweak gauge boson contribution to the effective Higgs potential in the context of composite Higgs models, using lattice gauge theory. The calculation is analogous to that of the electromagnetic mass splitting …

WW Scattering Parameters via Pseudoscalar Phase Shifts

Using domain-wall lattice simulations, we study pseudoscalar-pseudoscalar scattering in the maximal isospin channel for an SU(3) gauge theory with two and six fermion flavors in the fundamental representation. This calculation of the S-wave …
