Hadron masses and decay constants in quenched QCD ∗

چکیده
We present results for the mass spectrum and decay constants using non-perturbatively O(a) improved Wilson fermions. Three values of β and 30 different quark masses are used to obtain the chiral and continuum limits. Special emphasis will be given to the question of taking the chiral limit and the existence of non-analytic behavior predicted by quenched chiral perturbation theory (qχP T).

Scaling of Non-Perturbatively O(a) Improved Wilson Fermions: Hadron Spectrum, Quark Masses and Decay Constants
We compute the hadron mass spectrum, the quark masses and the meson decay constants in quenched lattice QCD with non-perturbatively O(a) improved Wilson fermions. The calculations are done for two values of the coupling constant, β = 6.0 and 6.2, and the results are compared with the predictions of ordinary Wilson fermions. We find that the improved action reduces lattice artifacts as expected.
متن کاملMaximum entropy analysis of hadron spectral functions and excited states in quenched lattice QCD
Employing the maximum entropy method we extract the spectral functions from meson correlators at four lattice spacings in quenched QCD with the Wilson quark action. We confirm that the masses and decay constants, obtained from the position and the area of peaks, agree well with the results from the conventional exponential fit. For the first excited state, we obtain mπ1 = 660(590) MeV, mρ1 = 15...
متن کاملNew Results for Non-perturbative O(a) Improvement in Light Hadrons *
We have results from light hadron simulations in quenched QCD at β = 6.0 and 6.2 using non-perturbatively improved Sheikholeslami–Wohlert fermions in an effort to remove all O(a) effects. From looking at hadron masses and splittings and the RG-invariant quark masses (where we have one point at β = 5.7) we suggest this is plausible even with the limited data set. The interpretation of the decay ...
متن کاملCP-PACS results for quenched QCD spectrum with the Wilson action
We present progress report of a CP-PACS calculation of quenched QCD spectrum with the Wilson quark action. Light hadron masses and meson decay constants are obtained at β =5.9, 6.1, and 6.25 on lattices with a physical extent of 3 fm, and for the range of quark mass corresponding to mπ/mρ ≈ 0.75 − 0.4. Nucleon mass at each β appears to be a convex function of quark mass, and consequently the va...
