Partially quenched study of strange baryon with Nf = 2 twisted mass fermions
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present results on the mass of the baryon octet and decuplet using two flavors of light dynamical twisted mass fermions. The strange quark mass is fixed to its physical value from the kaon sector in a partially quenched set up. Calculations are performed for light quark masses corresponding to a pion mass in the range 270-500 MeV and lattice sizes of 2.1 fm and 2.7 fm. We check for cut-off effects and isospin breaking by evaluating the baryon masses at two different lattice spacings. We carry out a chiral extrapolation for the octet baryons and discuss results for the Ω.

متن کاملCalculation of the nucleon sigma term and strange quark content with two flavors of dynamical overlap fermions
We present a calculation of the nucleon sigma term on two-flavor QCD configurations with dy-namical overlap fermions. We analyse the lattice data for the nucleon mass using the baryon chiral perturbation theory. Using partially quenched data sets, we extract the connected and disconnected contributions to the nucleon sigma term separately. Chiral symmetry on the lattice simplifies the determina...
متن کاملChiral perturbation theory for twisted mass QCD
Quantum Chromodynamics on a lattice with Wilson fermions and a chirally twisted mass term for two degenerate quark flavours is considered in the framework of chiral perturbation theory. The pion masses and decay constants are calculated in next-to-leading order including terms linear in the lattice spacing a. We treat both unquenched and partially quenched QCD. We also discuss the phase structu...
متن کاملResults from overlap valence quarks on a twisted mass sea
We present results of lattice computations using overlap fermions on a twisted mass background. N f = 2 full QCD gauge configurations have been produced by the ETM Collaboration with very light pions (down to less than 300 MeV), with small lattice spacing (a ≈ 0.09 fm) and large volumes (V/a4 = 243 ×48). By profiting of the good chiral properties of the overlap operator for the valence quarks, ...
متن کاملCalculation of the strange quark mass using domain wall fermions
We present a first calculation of the strange quark mass using domain wall fermions. This paper contains an overview of the domain wall discretization and a pedagogical presentation of the perturbative calculation necessary for computing the mass renormalization. We combine the latter with numerical simulations to estimate the strange quark mass. Our final result in the quenched approximation i...
