Description

We present preliminary results for fB and masses of low-lying heavy-light mesons in the static limit. Calculations were performed in the quenched approximation using multistate smearing functions generated from a Hamiltonian for a spinless relativistic quark. The 2S-1S and 1P-1S mass splittings are measured. Using the 1P-1S charmonium splitting to set the overall scale, the ground state decay constant fB, is 319 ± 11(stat) MeV. (orig.)
