Working Group Report: Heavy-Ion Physics and Quark-Gluon Plasma [PDF]
This is the report of Heavy Ion Physics and Quark-Gluon Plasma at WHEPP-09 which was part of Working Group-4. Discussion and work on some aspects of Quark-Gluon Plasma believed to have created in heavy-ion collisions and in early universe are reported ...

Quark Nuclear Physics with Heavy Quarks [PDF]
Heavy quarks have been instrumental for progress in our exploration of strong interactions. Quarkonium in particular, a heavy quark-antiquark nonrelativistic bound state, has been at the root of several revolutions. Quarkonium is endowed with a pattern of separated energy scales qualifying it as special probe of complex environments.

Intrinsic bottom and its impact on heavy new physics at the LHC
Heavy quark parton distribution functions (PDFs) play an important role in several Standard Model and New Physics processes. Most analyses rely on the assumption that the charm and bottom PDFs are generated perturbatively by gluon splitting and do not ...

Heavy quark physics on the lattice [PDF]
I review the current status of lattice calculations of the properties of bound states containing one or more heavy quarks. Many of my remarks focus on the heavy-light leptonic decay constants, such as $f_B$, for which the systematic errors have by now been quite well studied. I also discuss $B$-parameters, semileptonic form factors, and the heavy-light

Heavy Quark Physics From Lattice QCD [PDF]
We review the application of lattice QCD to the phenomenology of b- and c-quarks. After a short discussion of the lattice techniques used to evaluate hadronic matrix elements and the corresponding systematic uncertainties, we summarise results for ...

EFFECTIVE FIELD THEORY AND HEAVY QUARK PHYSICS [PDF]
These notes are based on five lectures presented at the 2004 Theoretical Advanced Study Institute (TASI) on ``Physics in D>=4''. After a brief motivation of flavor physics, they provide a pedagogical introduction to effective field theory, the effective weak Lagrangian, and the technology of renormalization-group improved perturbation theory.

Lattice Results For Heavy Quark Physics [PDF]
The status of lattice calculations for heavy quark systems is reviewed, focussing on weak matrix elements for leptonic and semi-leptonic decays of heavy mesons. After an assessment of the main systematic errors, results for the decay constants $f_D$ and $f_B$, the $B$ parameter describing $B - \bar{B}$ mixing, the Isgur-Wise function and the ...
