Description

I will report on recent results of the on-going efforts by the ALPHA collaboration to determine hadronic quantities in the heavy-flavor sector. In particular, I will highlight a precise calculation of the B*Bpi coupling in which a method to evaluate mesonic three-point correlation functions with small statistical and systematic errors is used. The efficacy of this approach is also compared with standard three-point function construction.
