Quark mass dependence of hadron masses from lattice QCD
نویسندگان
چکیده
We discuss lattice methods to obtain the derivatives of a lattice meson mass with respect to the bare sea and valence quark masses. Applications are made to quenched and dynamical fermion configurations. We find evidence for significant differences between quenched and dynamical fermion configurations. We discuss how to relate dependence on the bare lattice parameters to more phenomenologically useful quantities.

We confront lattice QCD results on the transition from the hadronic phase to the quark–gluon plasma with hadron resonance gas and percolation models. We argue that for T ≤ Tc the equation of state derived from Monte–Carlo simulations of (2+1) quark–flavor QCD can be well described by a hadron resonance gas. We examine the quark mass dependence of the hadron spectrum on the lattice and discuss i...
متن کاملQuark mass dependence of hadron spectrum in holographic QCD
We compute a shift of baryon mass spectra due to quark masses in perturbation, in Sakai-Sugimoto model of holographic QCD. We find the shift for the ground state nucleons to be δM = 4.1 mπ GeV , which is consistent with the current lattice QCD result. We predict the same value of the shift for N(1535) and ∆, while a larger value 7.7 mπ GeV −1 for Roper N(1440). We also present some evidences th...
متن کاملA New Slant on Hadron Structure
Rather than regarding the restriction of current lattice QCD simulations to quark masses that are 5–10 times larger than those observed, we note that this presents a wonderful opportunity to deepen our understanding of QCD. Just as it has been possible to learn a great deal about QCD by treating Nc as a variable, so the study of hadron properties as a function of quark mass is leading us to a m...

We evaluate pseudoscalar, vector, spin 1/2 and spin 3/2 baryon masses predicted by lattice QCD with Wilson quarks in the valence (quenched) approximation for a range of different values of lattice spacing, lattice volume and quark mass. Extrapolating these results to physical quark mass, then to zero lattice spacing and infinite volume we obtain values for eight mass ratios. We also determine t...

The aim of the GRAL project is to simulate full QCD with standard Wilson fermions at light quark masses on small to medium-sized lattices and to obtain infinite-volume results by extrapolation. In order to establish the functional form of the volume dependence we study systematically the finite-size effects in the light hadron spectrum. We give an update on the status of the GRAL project and sh...
