48. Old and New Physics with Domain Wall Fermion Lattice QCD

Robert Mawhinney (Columbia University)

4/10/15, 9:00 AM

invited talk

During the last two years, simulations with domain wall fermions at physical quark masses have been done at zero and non-zero temperature by the RBC and UKQCD Collaborations and the HotQCD Collaboration. Precision measurements of zero temperature observables, such as the kaon semileptonic form factor and B_K have been done. More challenging observables, such as K to pi pi weak decay...

103. Exotic spectroscopy in heavy and light flavor

Prof. Michael Williams (MIT)

4/10/15, 9:30 AM

invited talk

There have been many interesting results in the field of exotic spectroscopy in the past decade, especially in the area of heavy flavor. I will discuss the recent exciting results from the LHCb experiment at CERN with a focus on exotic charm spectroscopy, e.g., the X(3872) and Zc(4430). Then I will discuss the imminent advance in the field of light-quark spectroscopy expected from the GlueX...

67. Thermodynamic signature of additional strange and charmed baryons

Swagato Mukherjee (Brookhaven National Laboratory)

4/10/15, 10:00 AM

invited talk

Signatures of additional strange and charmed baryons obtained from lattice QCD thermodynamics will be presented and their implication of heavy-ion collision experiments will be discussed.
