Description
This talk presents results of weak matrix elements calculated from simulations done on 170 $32^3 \times 64$ lattices at $β= 6.0$ using quenched Wilson fermions. We discuss the extraction of pseudoscalar decay constants $f_π$, $f_K$, $f_D$, and $f_{D_s}$, the form-factors for the rare decay $B \to K^* γ$, and the matrix elements of the 4-fermion operators relevant to $B_K$, $B_7$, $B_8$. We present an analysis of the various sources of systematic errors, and show that these are now much larger than the statistical errors for each of these observables. Our main results are $f_D=186(29) \MeV$, $f_{D_s}=224(16) MeV$, $T_1=T_2=0.24(1)$, $B_K(NDR, 2\GeV)=0.67(9)$, and $B_8(NDR, 2\GeV)=0.81(1)$.
