Recent Lattice QCD Results from the UKQCD Collaboration
نویسنده
چکیده
The lattice technique of studying the strong interaction of matter is used to obtain predictions of the hadronic spectrum. These simulations were performed by the UKQCD collaboration using full (unquenched) QCD. Details of the results, a comparison with quenched data, and novel methods of extracting spectral properties are described.

Lattice QCD with Dynamical Quarks from the UKQCD Collaboration
A brief overview of the lattice technique of studying QCD is presented. Recent results from the UKQCD Collaboration’s simulations with dynamical quarks are then presented. In this work, the calculations are all at a fixed lattice spacing and volume, but varying sea quark mass from infinite (corresponding to the quenched simulation) down to roughly that of the strange quark mass. The main aim of...
متن کاملRecent Results from ( Full ) Lattice QCD
An overview of the Lattice technique for studies of the strong interaction is given. Recent results from the UKQCD lattice collaboration are presented. These concentrate on spectral quantities calculated using full (i.e. unquenched) QCD. A comparison with quenched results is made. Novel methods of extracting spectral properties from two-point functions are described.

We present a lattice computation of the first moment of the kaon's leading-twist distribution amplitude. We use ensembles with 2+1 dynamical flavours of domain wall fermions and the Iwasaki gauge action from the RBC and UKQCD joint dataset. We observe the expected chiral behaviour and obtain ξ (2 GeV) ≡ 3/5 a 1 K (2 GeV) = 0.032(3), which agrees very well with other results obtained using QCD s...
متن کاملNew lessons from the nucleon mass, lattice QCD and heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory
I will review heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory for the nucleon delta degrees of freedom and then examine the recent dynamical lattice calculations of the nucleon mass from the BMW, ETM, JLQCD, LHP, MILC, NPLQCD, PACS-CS, QCDSF/UKQCD and RBC/UKQCD Collaborations. Performing the chiral extrapolations of these results, one finds remarkable agreement with the physical nucleon mass, from each...
متن کاملThe Chroma Software System for Lattice QCD
We present the Chroma software system [1] for lattice QCD (LQCD) calculations. Chroma aims to provide a computational LQCD toolbox which is flexible, portable and efficient on a wide range of architectures from desktop workstations to clusters, commercial machines and new architectures such as the QCDOC [2] Development on Chroma started at the JLab for the U.S. lattice community, in particular ...
