Description

We consider three-flavor QCD and perform a determination of the low energy coupling g^ of SU(2) Heavy Meson Chiral Perturbation Theory. It is the BBπ coupling in the limit of static heavy and chiral light quarks in Nf=2+1 flavor QCD and has not been determined with precision thus far. The calculation is performed on the 2+1 flavor CLS ensembles using the summed GEVP method.
The extrapolation to the limit of chiral light quarks is based on a number of gauge ensembles with pion masses in the range from 420MeV down to 130MeV. This allows us to significantly reduce the systematic uncertainty from the extrapolation compared to previous works. Only a weak dependence on the lattice spacing is visible in our results.
This work is a first step in the 2+1 flavor HQET program of the ALPHA collaboration.
