A note on isospin violation in Pl2(gamma) decays
read the original abstract
We discuss the size of isospin violating effects of both electromagnetic (e \neq 0) and strong (m_u \neq m_d) origin in P_{\ell 2 (\gamma)} decays. Our results are relevant for the extraction of |V_{us}/V_{ud}| from the measured ratio of the K_{\mu 2 (\gamma)} and \pi_{\mu 2 (\gamma)} decay widths combined with F_K/F_\pi obtained in lattice calculations in the isospin limit. We point out that strong isospin-breaking corrections, neglected in previous studies, enter at the same level as the electromagnetic effects. The updated value for the ratio of CKM elements reads |V_{us}/V_{ud}| = 0.2316(12).

$F_K/F_\pi$ as a precision test of a new four flavor Domain Wall Fermion action
New four-flavor smeared Möbius Domain Wall Fermion ensembles yield F_K/F_pi = 1.1962(34) as a precision test for inexpensive chiral fermion calculations in lattice QCD.
