Description

We present new results on semileptonic decays of B-mesons using the highly improved staggered quark (HISQ) action for both valence and 2+1+1 sea quarks. Our calculation uses lattice spacings ranging from 0.12 fm down to 0.03 fm, including several ensembles with physical-mass pions. The focus on the talk will be on the vector and scalar form factors for the decay $B\to\pi\ell\nu$.

Parallel Session (for talks only) Quark and lepton flavor physics
