The spectrum of tmLQCD with quark and link smearing
نویسندگان
چکیده
The effect of using smeared sink operators on the hadron spectrum is studied for quenched twisted mass lattice QCD with up, down, and strange quarks. Gaussian smearing is used for quark fields, and stout link smearing for gauge fields. Smeared correlators are found to be dominated by the ground state with a small contribution from excited states, leading to an improved determination of some ground state masses.

THE ROLE OF QUARK POLARIZATION IN HEAVY QUARK FRAGMENTATION
We calculate the exact fragmentation functions for c and b quark fragmentation taking into account the spin orientation of the initial heavy quark in the form of analytical and rather simple expressions. Our calculations show that spin orientation may have an important effect on the fragmentation spectrum. This effect is more striking in the cases of c ?D, D*; c? ? , ? , and ?B , B *.
متن کاملAnalytic smearing of SU(3) link variables in lattice QCD
An analytic method of smearing link variables in lattice QCD is proposed and tested. The differentiability of the smearing scheme with respect to the link variables permits the use of modern Monte Carlo updating methods based on molecular dynamics evolution for gauge-field actions constructed using such smeared links. In examining the smeared mean plaquette and the static quark-antiquark potent...
متن کاملTests of Improved Kogut-Susskind Fermion Actions
Improvements of the Kogut-Susskind quark action may allow extraction of continuum physics from coarser lattices than would be required with the simplest formulation. This is especially important for full QCD simulations, which are much more time consuming than quenched calculations. Improvement of the rotational symmetry and the dispersion relation can be achieved by introducing the Naik term, ...
متن کاملExperiences with OpenMP in tmLQCD
An overview is given of the lessons learned from the introduction of multi-threading using OpenMP in tmLQCD. In particular, programming style, performance measurements, cache misses, scaling, thread distribution for hybrid codes, race conditions, the overlapping of communication and computation and the measurement and reduction of certain overheads are discussed. Performance measurements and sa...
متن کاملحالات مزونها و وابستگی آنها به اسپین و ایزواسپین
Meson is composed of one quark and one antiquark moving under the effect of confinement, oscillating and color potentials. Since quarks are particles with spin , there is a spin-spin interaction potential. Also we have isospins for u and d quarks and we can consider related potentials on isospin-isospin and spin-isospin effects. By comparing the given meson spectrum with the amount calculated...
