Quark masses using domain wall fermions ∗

چکیده
Due to the attractive features that domain wall fermions possess with respect to chiral symmetry, we continue our investigation of the light quark masses with this discretization. Achieving reliable results, especially for (mu +md)/2, requires strict control of systematic uncertainties. Our present results were obtained on a quenched β = 6.0 lattice with spatial volume ≈ (1.5 fm). Consequently we remark on effects of finite volume as well as finite extent in the fictitious fifth dimension. We compute the renormalization factors nonperturbatively and compare to the one–loop perturbative result.

The Kaon B-parameter from Two-flavour Dynamical Domain Wall Fermions
We report on the calculation of the kaon B-parameter using two dynamical flavours of domain wall fermions. Our analysis is based on three ensembles of configurations, each consisting of about 5,000 HMC trajectories, with a lattice spacing of approximately 1.7 GeV for 16 3 ×32 lattices; dynamical quark masses range from approximately the strange quark mass to half of that. Both degenerate and no...
متن کاملLight quark masses from Domain Wall Fermions
We present results for the renormalised light and strange quark masses calculated using Domain Wall Fermions in quenched QCD. New results using the DBW2 gauge action at a ≈ 2GeV and a ≈ 1.3GeV will be presented and compared against existing results at a ≈ 2GeV using the Wilson gauge action. This comparison allows a study of the uncertainties due to both finite lattice spacing and residual chira...

I review domain wall fermions in vector gauge theories. Following a brief introduction, the status of lattice calculations using domain wall fermions is presented. I focus on results from QCD, including the light quark masses and spectrum, weak matrix elements, the n f = 2 finite temperature phase transition, and topology and zero modes and conclude with topics for future study.
متن کاملQuenched scalar-meson correlator with Domain Wall Fermions
We study the q̄q singlet and non-singlet scalar-meson masses using domain wall fermions and the quenched approximation. The singlet mass is found to be smaller than the non-singlet mass and indicates that the lowest singlet meson state could be lighter than 1 GeV. The two-point functions for very small quark masses are compared with expectations from the small-volume chiral perturbation theory a...

We compute the one–loop self–energy correction to the massive domain wall quark propagator. Combining this calculation with simulations at several gauge couplings, we estimate the strange quark mass in the continuum limit. The perturbative one–loop mass renormalization is comparable to that for Wilson quarks and considerably smaller than that for Kogut–Susskind quarks. Also, scaling violations ...
