چکیده

We perform fully dynamical simulations at small quark masses by reweighting in the quark mass, calculating the weight factors stochastically. This approach avoids some of the technical difficulties associated with direct simulations. We find that the weight factors fluctuate only moderately on nHYP smeared dynamical Wilson-clover ensembles, and demonstrate that the overlap between the original and reweighted configurations is large both for short and long distance observables. We could successfully reweight 164, (1.85fm)4 volume configurations from mq ≈ 20 MeV to mq ≈ 5 MeV, and 244, (2.77fm)4 configurations from mq ≈ 8MeV to mq ≈ 3 MeV quark masses, reaching the ε-regime. Using the pseudoscalar and axialvector correlators we predict the low energy constants Σ and F and study their volume and mass dependence.

Renormalisation and off-shell improvement in lattice perturbation theory

We discuss the improvement of flavour non-singlet point and one-link lattice quark operators, which describe the quark currents and the first moment of the DIS structure functions respectively. Suitable bases of improved operators are given, and the corresponding renormalisation factors and improvement coefficients are calculated in one-loop lattice perturbation theory, using the Sheikholeslami...

FLIC Fermions and Hadron Phenomenology

A pedagogical overview of the formulation of the Fat Link Irrelevant Clover (FLIC) fermion action and its associated phenomenology is described. The scaling analysis indicates FLIC fermions provide a new form of nonperturbative O(a) improvement where near-continuum results are obtained at finite lattice spacing. Spin-1/2 and spin-3/2, even and odd parity baryon resonances are investigated in qu...

Electromagnetic Form Factors with FLIC fermions

The Fat-Link Irrelevant Clover (FLIC) fermion action provides a new form of nonperturbative O(a) improvement and allows efficient access to the light quark-mass regime. FLIC fermions enable the construction of the nonperturbatively O(a)-improved conserved vector current without the difficulties associated with the fine tuning of the improvement coefficients. The simulations are performed with a...

clover-improved Wilson fermions

We report calculations of the parameter BK appearing in the ∆S = 2 neutral kaon mixing matrix element, whose uncertainty limits the power of unitarity triangle constraints for testing the standard model or looking for new physics. We use two flavours of dynamical clover-improved Wilson lattice fermions and look for dependence on the dynamical quark mass at fixed lattice spacing. We see some evi...

We report calculations of B K using two flavours of dynamical clover-improved Wilson lattice fermions and look for dependence on the dynamical quark mass at fixed lattice spacing. We see some evidence for dynamical quark effects. In particular B K decreases as the sea quark masses are reduced towards the up/down quark mass. Our meson masses are quite heavy and a firm prediction of B K is a task...
