Issue Date: | 13-Jul-2009 | Publisher: | Institute of Physics Publishing | Citation: | Journal of High Energy Physics 07: 043 (2009) | Abstract: | We present the results of a lattice QCD calculation of the pseudoscalar meson decay constants fπ, fK, fD and fDs, performed with Nf = 2 dynamical fermions. The simulation is carried out with the tree-level improved Symanzik gauge action and with the twisted mass fermionic action at maximal twist. We have considered for the final analysis three values of the lattice spacing, a simeq 0.10 fm, 0.09 fm and 0.07 fm, with pion masses down to mπ simeq 270 MeV. Our results for the light meson decay constants are fK = 158.1(2.4) MeV and fK/fπ = 1.210(18). From the latter ratio, by using the experimental determination of Γ(K → μbar nuμ(γ))/Γ(π → μbar nuμ(γ)) and the average value of |Vud| from nuclear beta decays, we obtain |Vus| = 0.2222(34), in good agreement with the determination from semileptonic Kl3 decays and the unitarity constraint. For the D and Ds meson decay constants we obtain fD = 197(9) MeV, fDs = 244(8) MeV and fDs/fD = 1.24(3). Our result for fD is in good agreement with the CLEO experimental measurement. For fDs our determination is smaller than the PDG 2008 experimental average but in agreement with a recent improved measurement by CLEO at the 1.4 σ level. | Publisher version (URL): | http://dx.doi.org/10.1088/1126-6708/2009/07/043 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/20646 | DOI: | 10.1088/1126-6708/2009/07/043 | ISSN: | 1126-6708 |
