Heavy Quark Physics - Effective Field Theory on Lattice

Explore heavy quark physics through the lens of effective field theory (EFT) on lattice in this lecture delivered by Saumen Dutta at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Delve into the systematic approach of describing heavy quark dynamics using lattice QCD methods combined with effective field theory techniques. Learn how EFT provides a framework for understanding heavy quark systems by focusing on relevant degrees of freedom while maintaining systematic control over approximations. Discover the computational methods used to study heavy mesons and baryons on the lattice, including the treatment of heavy quark masses and the extraction of physical observables. Examine the theoretical foundations that connect continuum EFT formulations to discrete lattice implementations, and understand how this approach enables precise calculations of heavy quark properties. Gain insights into current research developments in heavy quark phenomenology and the role of lattice EFT in advancing our understanding of QCD in the heavy quark sector.
