Abstract

The Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix elements |Vcb| and |Vub| can be obtained by combining data from the experiments with lattice QCD results for the semileptonic form factors for the B¯→D∗ℓν¯ and B¯→πℓν¯ decays. It is highly desirable to use the Oktay-Kronfeld (OK) action for the form factor calculation on the lattice, since the OK action is designed to reduce the heavy quark discretization error down to the O(a4Λ4)≃O(Λ4/(2mQ)4) level in the power counting rules of the heavy quark effective theory (HQET). Here, we present a matching calculation to improve heavy-heavy and heavy-light currents up to the λ3 order in HQET, the same level of improvement as the OK action. Our final results for the improved currents are being used in a lattice QCD calculation of the semileptonic form factors for the B¯→D∗ℓν¯ and B¯→Dℓν¯ decays.
