In conjunction with lattice simulations with three flavors of light, dynamical quarks, our results yield an unquenched determination of B_K, the parameter that determines the amount of indirect CP violation in the neutral kaon system. Its value is an important input for the unitarity triangle analysis of weak decays.11 pages, 2 figuresHigh Energy Physics - LatticeHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyOne-loop matching of Delta S=2 four-quark operators with improved staggered fermionstext
