Using 2024 inputs and exclusive |V_cb|, the standard model predicts only about 65% of the measured |epsilon_K|, a gap that vanishes when inclusive |V_cb| is used.

abstract
We present recent progress in the lattice calculation of leptonic decay constants for $B_{(s)}$ and $D_{(s)}$ mesons using the Oktay-Kronfeld (OK) action for charm and bottom valence quarks, whose masses are tuned non-perturbatively. The calculations are done on 6 HISQ ensembles generated by the MILC collaboration with $N_f=2+1+1$ flavors. We also use the HISQ action for the light spectator quarks. Results are presented for the ratios $f_{B_s}/f_B$ and $f_{D_s}/f_D$, which reflect $SU(3)$ flavor symmetry breaking, and are independent of the renormalization constants of the axial currents.

2024 Update on $\varepsilon_K$ with lattice QCD inputs
Using 2024 inputs and exclusive |V_cb|, the standard model predicts only about 65% of the measured |epsilon_K|, a gap that vanishes when inclusive |V_cb| is used.
