Abstract

A new method, recently introduced for the lattice calculation of electromagnetic and isospin corrections to weak decays [1], is discussed. Using this method, for the first time, the electromagnetic effects in the leptonic decay rates and have been evaluated in lattice QCD. Preliminary results for the electromagnetic corrections to charged (neutral) pion and kaon masses and leptonic decay rates are presented.
