We present results for masses of excited mesons from dynamical clover-Wilson lattices provided by the CP-PACS collaboration at pion masses down to 500 MeV. Our analysis of the data is based on using a matrix of correlators from various source and sink operators. The spectroscopy results are discussed and compared to experimental values.

Chiral perturbation theory for eigenvalue distributions, and equivalently random matrix theory, has recently been extended to include lattice effects for Wilson fermions. We test the predictions by comparison to eigenvalue distributions of the Hermitian Wilson-Dirac operator from pure gauge (quenched) ensembles. We show that the lattice effects are diminished when using clover improvement for the Dirac operator. We demonstrate that the leading Wilson low-energy constants associated with Wilson (clover) fermions can be determined using spectral information of the respective Dirac operator at fi…
We compare the quenched hadron spectrum on blocked and unblocked lattices for the Wilson quark action, the clover action and the tadpole-improved clover action. The latter gives a spectrum markedly closer to the original one, even though the cutoff is 1/a ~ 500 Mev.
We present results of quenched $SU(3)$ hadron spectroscopy comparing $\order(a)$ improved Wilson (Clover) fermions with conventional Wilson fermions. The configurations were generated using an $\order(a^2)$ improved 6-link $SU(3)$ pure gauge action at $β$'s corresponding to lattice spacings of $0.15$, $0.18$, $0.20$, $0.33$, and $0.43$ fm. We find evidence that fermionic scaling violations are consistent with $\order(a^2)$ for Clover and $\order(a)$ with a nonnegligible $\order(a^2)$ term for standard Wilson fermions. This latter mixed ansatz makes a reliable continuum extrapolation problemati…
We apply a recent proposal to speed up the Hybrid-Monte-Carlo simulation of systems with dynamical fermions to two flavor QCD with clover-improvement. For our smallest quark masses we see a speed-up of more than a factor of two compared with the standard algorithm.
Wilson quark action, with tadpole improved clover term added, is studied on coarse anisotropic lattices. The bare velocity of light parameter in this action is determined non-perturbatively using the pseudo-scalar and vector meson dispersion relations for various values of the gauge coupling $β$ and bare quark mass parameter $κ$.
We present preliminary results of light hadron spectroscopy using valence, tadpole-improved, Clover fermions on an ensemble of gauge configurations generated with 2 flavors of staggered fermions at a beta of 5.6. We compare the slope and intercept of the curve M_V vs. M_PS^2 for Clover and Wilson fermions. We show that a higher order chiral perturbation theory ansatz works very well for chiral extrapolations.
We present evidence for improvement with tadpole improved clover fermions based on an analysis of the chiral behavior of $B_K$ and the quark condensate. Also presented are a comparison of the mass splittings in the baryon octet and decuplet, a calculation of $c_A$ using standard 2-point correlation functions, and the problem of zero modes of the Dirac operator.
We compute, to two loops in pertubation theory, the fermionic contribution to rectangular RxT Wilson loops, for different values of R and T. We use the overlap fermionic action. We also employ the clover action, for comparison with existing results in the literature. In the limit R, T -> Infinity our results lead to the shift in the b-quark mass. We also evaluate the perturbative static potential as T -> Infinity.
We compute the hyperfine splitting $m_{J/ψ}-m_{η_c}$ on the lattice, using both the Wilson and $O(a)$-improved (clover) actions for quenched quarks. The computations are performed on a $24^3\times48$ lattice at $β= 6.2$, using the same set of 18 gluon configurations for both fermion actions. We find that the splitting is 1.83\err{13}{15} times larger with the clover action than with the Wilson action, demonstrating the sensitivity of the spin-splitting to the magnetic moment term which is present in the clover action. However, even with the clover action the result is less than half of the phy…
We calculate the Sheikholeslami-Wohlert coefficient of the O(a) improvement term for Wilson fermions in any representation of the gauge group SU(N) perturbatively at the one-loop level. The result applies to QCD with adjoint quarks and to N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on the lattice.
We present results of our quenched study of the B meson decay constant obtained with a parallel set of simulations with the Wilson and Clover actions at β=5.9, 6.1 and 6.3. Systematic errors associated with the large b-quark mass are analyzed within the Fermilab non-relativistic formalism. As our best estimate in the continuum limit we obtain $f_B=163 \pm 16 MeV$ and $f_{B_s}=175 \pm 18 MeV$ with the Clover action.
We report calculations of B_K using two flavours of dynamical clover-improved Wilson lattice fermions and look for dependence on the dynamical quark mass at fixed lattice spacing. We see some evidence for dynamical quark effects. In particular B_K decreases as the sea quark masses are reduced towards the up/down quark mass. Our meson masses are quite heavy and a firm prediction of B_K is a task for future simulations.
We apply a recent proposal to speed up the Hybrid-Monte-Carlo simulation of systems with dynamical fermions to two flavour QCD with clover-improvement. The basic idea of our proposal is to split the fermion matrix into two factors with a reduced condition number each. In the effective action, for both factors a pseudo-fermion field is introduced. For our smallest quark masses we see a speed-up of more than a factor of two compared with the standard algorithm.
We present a status report of our calculation of the electromagnetic form factor of the pion on the PACS-CS gauge field configurations generated using Iwasaki gauge action and Wilson-clover quark action for 2 + 1 flavors of light dynamical quarks. The technique of twiseted boundary conditon is employed to explore the form factor for small momentum transfer. The $q^2$ behavior of the form factor and its light quark mass dependence is examined.
We report calculations of the parameter B_K appearing in the Delta S=2 neutral kaon mixing matrix element, whose uncertainty limits the power of unitarity triangle constraints for testing the standard model or looking for new physics. We use two flavours of dynamical clover-improved Wilson lattice fermions and look for dependence on the dynamical quark mass at fixed lattice spacing. We see some evidence for dynamical quark effects and in particular B_K decreases as the sea quark masses are reduced towards the up/down quark mass.
We present an update of the finite temperature phase structure analysis for three flavor QCD. In the study the Iwasaki gauge action and non-perturvatively O($a$) improved Wilson-Clover fermion action are employed. We discuss finite size scaling analysis including mixings of magnetization-like and energy-like observables. Preliminary results are shown of the continuum limit of the critical point using newly generated data at Nt=8,10, including estimates of the critical pseudo-scalar meson mass and critical temperature.
We study mesons on the lattice with a special focus on excited states. For that purpose we construct several quark sources with different spatial smearings, including p-waves. These quark sources are then combined with the appropiate Dirac structures to form meson interpolators of definite spin. We use these operators to construct a cross correlation matrix from which we extract ground and excited meson states using the variational method. For the calculations we use gauge configurations with $N_f=2$ dynamical Clover Wilson fermions provided by the CP-PACS collaboration. We show preliminary re…
We present results for excited meson spectra from $N_f=2$ clover-Wilson configurations provided by the CP-PACS Collaboration. In our study we investigate both low and high spin mesons. For spin-0 and spin-1 mesons, we are especially interested in the excited states. To access these states we construct several different interpolators from quark sources of different spatial smearings and calculate a matrix of correlators. For this matrix we then solve a generalized eigenvalue problem. For spin-2 and spin-3, we extract only the lowest lying states.
We present results for the Kaon $B$ parameter from a sample of $200$ configurations using the Wilson action and $460$ configurations using the Clover action, on a $18^3 \times 64$ lattice at $β=6.0$. A slight improvement of the chiral behaviour of $B_K$ is observed due to the Clover action. We have also compared the results for $B_K$ obtained from two different procedures for the boosting of the coupling constant $g$. We observe a strong dependence of $B_K$ on the prescription adopted for $g$ in the Wilson case, contrary to the results of the Clover case which are almost unaffected by the choi…
We compare light hadron spectroscopy using the Wilson and Clover fermionic actions. We show that a Clover coefficient chosen using tadpole-improved tree-level perturbation theory effectively eliminates the O(a) discretization errors present in the Wilson action. We find that discretization errors in light spectroscopy for both the Wilson and Clover actions are characterized by an energy scale mu of about 200-300 MeV, indicating that these errors can be reduced to the 5% level by using the Clover action at an inverse lattice spacing of about 1.3 GeV.
We present a preliminary study of the pion, kaon and D-meson masses and decay constants in isosymmetric QCD, as well as a preliminary result for the light-quark renormalized mass. The analysis is based on the gauge ensembles produced by ETMC with $N_f=2+1+1$ flavours of Wilson-clover twisted mass quarks, spanning a range of lattice spacings from $\sim0.10$ to $0.07$ fm and include configurations at the physical pion point on lattices with linear size up to $L~\sim~5.6$~fm
We present results on the nucleon electromagnetic form factors from Lattice QCD at momentum transfer up to about $12$~GeV$^2$. We analyze two gauge ensembles with the Wilson-clover fermion action, a lattice spacing of $a\approx 0.09$~fm and pion masses $m_π\approx 170$~MeV and $m_π\approx 280$~MeV. In our analysis we employ momentum smearing as well as a set of techniques to investigate excited state effects. Good agreement with experiment and phenomenology is found for the ratios $G_E/G_M$ and $F_2/F_1$, whereas discrepancies are observed for the individual form factors $F_1$ and $F_2$. We di…
We report our study on the critical endpoint of the finite temperature phase transition in 4-flavor QCD with Wilson-Clover fermions. Using the kurtosis intersection method, we determined the critical endpoint on lattices with $N_t$ = 4, 6 and 8. Our continuum extrapolated results show that the pseudo-scalar meson mass at the critical endpoint, $m_\mathrm{PS,E}$, for 4-flavor is clearly larger than that for 3-flavor. We also compared our results to those with staggered fermions and found that $m_\mathrm{PS,E}/T_E$ for 4-flavor with Wilson fermions might remain finite even in the continuum limit…
We study exceptional modes of both the Wilson and the clover action in order to understand why quenched clover spectroscopy suffers so severely from exceptional configurations. We show that a large clover coefficient can make the exceptional modes extremely localized and thus very sensitive to short distance fluctuations. We contrast this with the case of the Wilson action where exceptional modes correspond to large instantons. These modes are broadly extended and suffer much less from discretization errors.
I report the current status of the heavy-light decay constants, the bag parameters and the semileptonic form factors. I compare the heavy-light decay constants with Wilson-Wilson and clover-clover fermions. Systematic errors such as scale setting and renormalization factors are also discussed. 1/M dependences for the heavy-light semileptonic form factors near $q^2 = q^2_max$ with clover-clover and NRQCD-Wilson fermions are found to be small.
2-flavour $SU(2)$ gauge theory with exponential clover Wilson fermions
本文研究了作为复合Higgs模型最小候选者的2味$SU(2)$规范理论，采用提供$O(a)$改进的指数三叶草Wilson费米子作用量，通过Schrödinger泛函模拟调整参数并分析了低能谱。
Using an ensemble of 535 gauge configurations (on the $24^4 \times 48 $ lattice with $ a \simeq 0.06 $~fm and $ M_π \simeq 260 $~MeV) which are generated by hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) simulation of $N_f=2$ lattice QCD with the optimal domain-wall quark, we compute the index of the overlap-Dirac operator, and also measure the clover topological charge in the Wilson flow, $Q_{\text{clover}}(t) $, by integrating the flow equation from $ t = 0 $ to $ t = 128 $ with $δt = 0.01 $. We observe that $Q_{\text{clover}}(t) $ of each configuration converges to a value close to an integer, and its nearest in…
The QCD phase diagram is studied in the lattice QCD simulation with the imaginary chemical potential approach. We employ a clover-improved Wilson fermion action of two-flavors and a renormalization-group improved gauge action, and perform the simulation at an intermediate quark mass on a $8^3\times 4$ lattice. The QCD phase diagram in the imaginary chemical potential $μ_I$ region is investigated by performing the simulation for more than 150 points on the $(β,μ_I)$ plane. We find that the Roberge-Weiss phase transition at $μ_I/T=π/3$ is first order and its endpoint is second order, which are i…
We investigate the phase structure of 3-flavor QCD in the presence of finite quark chemical potential by using Wilson-Clover fermions. To deal with the complex action with finite density, we adopt the phase reweighting method. In order to survey a wide parameter region, we employ the multi-parameter reweighting method as well as the multi-ensemble reweighting method. Especially, we focus on locating the critical end point that characterizes the phase structure. It is estimated by the kurtosis intersection method for the quark condensate. For Wilson-type fermions, the correspondence between bar…
We present a determination of the gradient flow scales $w_0$, $\sqrt{t_0}$ and $t_0/w_0$ in isosymmetric QCD, making use of the gauge ensembles produced by the Extended Twisted Mass Collaboration (ETMC) with $N_f=2+1+1$ flavours of Wilson-clover twisted-mass quarks including configurations close to the physical point for all dynamical flavours. The simulations are carried out at three values of the lattice spacing and the scale is set through the PDG value of the pion decay constant, yielding $w_0=0.17383(63)$ fm, $\sqrt{t_0}=0.14436(61)$ fm and $t_0/w_0=0.11969(62)$ fm. Finally, fixing the ka…
We study exceptional modes of both the Wilson and the clover action in order to understand why quenched clover spectroscopy suffers so severely from exceptional configurations. We show that, in contrast to the case of the Wilson action, a large clover coefficient can make the exceptional modes extremely localized and thus very sensitive to short distance fluctuations. We describe a way to optimize the chiral behavior of Wilson-type lattice fermion actions by studying their low energy real eigenmodes. We find a candidate action, the clover action with fat links with a tuned clover term. We pres…
We report on a two-flavour lattice QCD determination of the $B_s\to D_s$ and $B_s\to D_s^*$ transitions, which in the heavy quark limit can be parameterised by the form factors $\mathcal{G}$, and $h_{\text A_1}$, $h_{\text A_2}$ and $h_{\text A_3}$. In the search of New Physics through tests of lepton-flavour universality, $B_s$ decay channels are complementary to $B$ decays and widely studied at $B$ factories and LHCb. The purpose of our study is to explore a suitable method to extract form factors associated with $b\to c$ currents from lattice QCD. In particular, we present numerical results…
With the ever-growing number of computing architectures, performance portability is an important aspect of (Lattice QCD) software. The Grid library provides a good framework for writing such code, as it thoroughly separates hardware-specific code from algorithmic functionality and already supports many modern architectures. We describe the implementation of a multigrid solver for Wilson clover fermions in Grid by the RQCD group. We present the features included in our implementation, discuss initial optimization efforts, and compare the performance with another multigrid implementation.
We describe our implementation of a multigrid solver for Wilson-clover fermions, which increases parallelism by solving for multiple right-hand sides (MRHS) simultaneously. The solver is based on Grid and thus runs on all computing architectures supported by the Grid framework. We present detailed benchmarks of the relevant kernels, such as hopping and clover term on the various multigrid levels, intergrid operators, and reductions. The benchmarks were performed on the JUWELS Booster system at Jülich Supercomputing Centre, which is based on Nvidia A100 GPUs. For example, solving a $24^3\times1…
We present the corrections to the fermion propagator, to second order in the lattice spacing, O(a^2), in 1-loop perturbation theory. The fermions are described by the clover action and for the gluons we use a 3-parameter family of Symanzik improved actions. Our calculation has been carried out in a general covariant gauge. The results are provided as a polynomial of the clover parameter, and are tabulated for 10 popular sets of the Symanzik coefficients (Plaquette, Tree-level Symanzik, Iwasaki, TILW and DBW2 action). We also study the O(a^2) corrections to matrix elements of fermion bilinear o…
Using Schroedinger functional techniques, we determine the coefficient of the clover term necessary for non-perturbative O(a) improvement of hypercubic smeared Wilson fermions on a quenched plaquette action background. Unlike for unsmeared Wilson fermions, the resulting clover coefficients are close to the tree-level value even at coarse lattice spacings, indicating the absence of large cutoff effects. A number of exploratory tests are also performed with the improved action.
We study the finite-temperature phase structure and the transition temperature of QCD with two flavors of dynamical quarks on a lattice with the temporal size $N_t=4$, using a renormalization group improved gauge action and the Wilson quark action improved by the clover term. The region of a parity-broken phase is identified, and the finite-temperature transition line is located on a two-dimensional parameter space of the coupling ($β=6/g^2$) and hopping parameter $K$. Near the chiral transition point, defined as the crossing point of the critical line of the vanishing pion mass and the line o…
We present a summary of results of the joint CP-PACS and JLQCD project toward a 2+1 flavor full QCD simulation with the O(a)-improved Wilson quark formalism and the Iwasaki gauge action. Configurations were generated during 2002-2005 at three lattice spacings, a~0.076, 0.100 and 0.122 fm, keeping the physical volume constant at (2.0fm)^3. Up and down quark masses are taken in the range m_{PS}/m_V~0.6-0.78. We have completed the analysis for the light meson spectrum and quark masses in the continuum limit using the full configuration set. The predicted meson masses reproduce experimental values…
The improved Wilson quark action - the clover action - is constructed to have smaller discretization errors than the normal Wilson quark action. We test this in a quenched spectroscopy computation on 6 lattice ensembles with spacings from 0.15 to 0.43 fm. To ensure that the dominant scaling violations come from the fermions we use an $O(a^2)$ improved 6-link $SU(3)$ pure gauge action. We find evidence that fermionic scaling violations are consistent with $O(a^2)$ for clover fermions and $O(a)$ with a nonnegligible $O(a^2)$ term for standard Wilson fermions. This latter mixed ansatz makes a rel…
Stabilized Wilson fermions are a reformulation of Wilson clover fermions that incorporates several numerical stabilizing techniques, but also a local change of the fermion action - the original clover term being replaced with an exponentiated version of it. We intend to apply the stabilized Wilson fermions toolbox to the thermodynamics of QCD, starting on the $N_f=3$ symmetric line on the Columbia plot, and to compare the results with those obtained with other fermion discretizations.
We explore and compare three mixed action setups with Wilson twisted mass sea quarks and different valence quark actions: (1) Wilson twisted mass, (2) Wilson twisted mass + clover and (3) Wilson + clover. Our main goal is to reduce lattice discretization errors in mesonic spectral quantities, in particular to reduce twisted mass parity and isospin breaking.
We present results for the kaon $B$-parameter $B_K$ from a sample of $200$ configurations using the Wilson action and $460$ configurations using the SW-Clover action, on a $18^3 \times 64$ lattice at $β=6.0$. We compare results obtained by renormalizing the relevant operator with different ``boosted" values of the strong coupling constant $α_s$. In the case of the SW-Clover action, we also use the operator renormalized non-perturbatively. In the Wilson case, we observe a strong dependence of $B_K$ on the prescription adopted for $α_s$, contrary to the results of the Clover case which are almos…
In an exploratory study, using the tadpole improved clover Wilson quark action on small, coarse and anisotropic lattices, the $ππ$ scattering length in the I=2 channel is calculated within quenched approximation. A new method is proposed which enables us to make chiral extrapolation of our lattice results without calculating the decay constant on the lattice. Finite volume and finite lattice spacing errors are analyzed and the results are extrapolated towards the infinite volume and continuum limit. Comparisons of our lattice results with the new experiment and the results from Chiral Perturba…
We present the masses of singly ($B$, $B_s$, $Λ_b$, $Σ_b$, etc.), doubly ($B_c$, $η_b$, $Υ$, $Ξ_{bc}$, $Ξ_{bb}$, etc.), and triply ($Ω_{bcc}$, $Ω_{bbc}$, $Ω_{bbb}$, etc.) heavy hadrons arising from (QCDSF-UKQCD) lattices with improved clover-Wilson light quarks. For the bottom quark, we use an $O(a,v^4)$-improved version of lattice NRQCD. Part of the bottomonia spectrum is used to provide an alternative scale and to determine the physical quark mass and radiative corrections used in the heavy-quark action. Results for spin splittings, opposite parities, and, in some cases, excited states are p…
We present results for pseudoscalar decay constants of heavy-light mesons using both quenched and N_f = 2 dynamical fermion configurations. A variety of fermion actions is investigated : Wilson, nonperturbative clover, and fat-link clover. For heavy quarks the Fermilab formalism is applied. In the quenched approximation, results with the nonperturbatively improved clover action of the Alpha collaboration allow us to study the systematic error of the continuum extrapolation from the Wilson action. In addition, we use quenched configurations to explore the effects of fattening. The lessons from …
We discuss the extraction of negative-parity baryon masses from lattice QCD calculations. The mass of the lowest-lying negative-parity $J = 1/2^{-}$ state is computed in quenched lattice QCD using an ${\cal O}(a)$-improved clover fermion action, and a splitting found with the nucleon mass. The calculation is performed on two lattice volumes, and three lattice spacings enabling a study of both finite-volume and finite-lattice-spacing uncertainties. A measurement of the first excited radial excitation of the nucleon finds a mass considerably larger than that of the negative-parity ground state, …
We study properties of the finite temperature quark propagator by using the SU(3) quenched lattice simulation in the Landau gauge and report numerical results of the standard Wilson quark case as well as the improved clover one. The mass function in the deconfinement phase is different from that of the confinement phase, especially at low momentum regions.
We investigate the finite temperature behavior of nonperturbatively improved clover fermions on lattices with temporal extent N_t=4 and 6. Unfortunately in the gauge coupling range, where the clover coefficient has been determined nonperturbatively, the finite temperature crossover/transition occurs at heavy pseudoscalar masses and large pseudoscalar to vector meson mass ratios. However, on an N_t=6 lattice the thermal crossover for the improved fermions is much smoother than for unimproved Wilson fermions and no strange metastable behavior is observed.
We describe a way to optimize the chiral behavior of Wilson-type lattice fermion actions by studying the low energy real eigenmodes of the Dirac operator. We find a candidate action, the clover action with fat links with a tuned clover term. The action shows good scaling behavior at Wilson gauge coupling beta=5.7.
We describe a way to optimize the chiral behavior of Wilson-type lattice fermion actions by studying the low energy real eigenmodes of the Dirac operator. We find a candidate action, the clover action with fat links with a tuned clover term. We present a calculation of spectroscopy and matrix elements at Wilson gauge coupling $β=5.7$. The action shows good scaling behavior.
Clover improvement is the standard choice for lattice simulations of QCD, when the lattice artefacts coming from Wilson fermions have to be reduced. However, the clover improvement is not limited to QCD, but can be applied to a wider range of theories with fermions in higher representations of the gauge group SU(N), like the adjoint fermions required by supersymmetry or by technicolor theories. We present the calculation of the clover coefficient up to one loop order with standard perturbation theory for these models. Applications of clover fermions to supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory are also…
We give some new performance results for the Hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) simulation of dynamical clover-improved Wilson fermions using an improved pseudo-fermion action. The generalisation of even-odd preconditioning for the standard Wilson fermion matrix to the clover-improved case is not unique. In the literature the so called symmetric and asymmetric versions are discussed. Most of the previous simulations of dynamical clover-improved Wilson fermions were done with the asymmetric version. Only recently, the JLQCD collaboration has pointed out that the symmetric version leads to a better perfor…
We present recent results for meson decay constants calculated on configurations with two flavours of O(a)-improved Wilson fermions. Non-perturbative renormalisation is applied and quark mass dependencies as well as finite volume and discretisation effects are investigated. In this work we also present a computation of the coupling of the light vector mesons to the tensor current using dynamical fermions.
We present high statistics ($\mathcal{O}(2\times 10^5)$ measurements) preliminary results on (i) the isovector charges, $g^{u-d}_{A,S,T}$, and form factors, $G^{u-d}_E(Q^2)$, $G^{u-d}_M(Q^2)$, $G^{u-d}_A(Q^2)$, $\widetilde G^{u-d}_P(Q^2)$, $G^{u-d}_P(Q^2)$, on six 2+1-flavor Wilson-clover ensembles generated by the JLab/W&M/LANL/MIT collaboration with lattice parameters given in Table 1. Examples of the impact of using different estimates of the excited state spectra are given for the clover-on-clover data, and as discussed in [1], the biggest difference on including the lower energy (close to…
In this work, we perform parameter tuning with dynamical anisotropic clover lattices using the Schrödinger functional and stout-smearing in the fermion field. We find that $ξ_R/ξ_0$ is relatively close to 1 in our parameter search, which allows us to fix $ξ_0$ in our runs. We proposed to determine the gauge and fermion anisotropy in a Schrödinger-background small box using Wilson loop ratios and PCAC masses. We demonstrate that these ideas are equivalent to but more efficient than the conventional meson dispersion approach. The spatial and temporal clover coefficients are fixed to the tree-lev…
We present an adaptive multigrid Dirac solver developed for Wilson clover fermions which offers order-of-magnitude reductions in solution time compared to conventional Krylov solvers. The solver incorporates even-odd preconditioning and mixed precision to solve the Dirac equation to double precision accuracy and shows only a mild increase in time to solution for decreasing quark mass. We show actual time to solution on production lattices in comparison to conventional Krylov solvers and will also discuss the setup process and its relative cost to the total solution time.
We report on our simulation of finite temperature lattice QCD with two flavors of ${\cal O}(a)$ Symanzik-improved fermions and ${\cal O}(a^2)$ Symanzik-improved glue. Our thermodynamic simulations were performed on an $8^3 \times 4$ lattice, and we have performed complementary zero temperature simulations on an $8^3 \times 16$ lattice. We compare our results to those from simulations with two flavors of Wilson fermions and discuss the improvement resulting from use of the improved action.
In this work we perform the parameter tuning of three flavors of dynamical clover quarks on anisotropic lattices. The fermion action uses three-dimensional spatial stout-link smearing. The gauge anisotropy is determined in a small box with Schrödinger background using Wilson-loop ratios. The fermion anisotropy is obtained from studying the meson dispersion relation with antiperiodic boundary conditions in the time direction. The spatial and temporal clover coefficients are fixed to the tree-level tadpole-improved values, and we demonstrate that they satisfy the nonperturbative conditions as de…
We present a framework for phenomenological lattice QCD calculations which makes use of a tree level Symanzink improved action for gluons and stout-link Wilson fermions. We give details of our efficient HMC/RHMC algorithm and present a scaling study of the low-lying N_f=3 baryon spectrum. We find a scaling region that extends to a~<0.16fm and conclude that our action and algorithm are suitable for large scale phenomenological investigations of N_f=2+1 QCD. We expect this conclusion to hold for other comparable actions.
We present a perturbative calculation of the improvement coefficients of SU(2) gauge theory with adjoint representation Wilson-clover fermions and using Schrodinger functional boundary conditions. The computation of the boundary improvement terms is necessary for the full O(a) improvement. With two flavours of adjoint representation fermions this theory is called Minimal Walking Technicolor model.
