Description

In this talk we present the status of the RBC-UKQCD collaboration project to compute the QED corrections to light pseudo-scalar leptonic decay rates. This computation is using domain-wall fermions at close-to-physical quark masses. We summarise the overall strategy to obtain the relevant amplitude corrections from Euclidean correlation functions. These correlations functions are assembled using an all-to-all strategy including low-mode averaging using 2000 eigenvectors of the fermion matrix. We present preliminary results implementing this strategy.
