A Numerical Study of Improved Quark Actions on Anisotropic Lattices
نویسندگان
چکیده
Tadpole improved Wilson quark actions with clover terms on anisotropic lattices are studied numerically. Using asymmetric lattice volumes, the pseudo-scalar meson dispersion relations are measured for 8 lowest lattice momentum modes with quark mass values ranging from the strange to the charm quark with various values of the gauge coupling β and 3 different values of the bare speed of light parameter ν. These results can be utilized to extrapolate or interpolate to obtain the optimal value for the bare speed of light parameter νopt(m) at a given gauge coupling for all bare quark mass values m. In particular, the optimal values of ν at the physical strange and charm quark mass are given for various gauge couplings. The lattice action with these optimized parameters can then be used to study physical properties of hadrons involving either light or heavy quarks.

Improved Quark Actions for Lattice Qcd
In the last few years it has become clear that there are a variety of gluon actions that give accurate results on coarse lattices (a = 0.2 − 0.4 fm); see various contributions to Lattice 96. Such actions have been constructed within the Symanzik improvement program, eliminating O(a) errors using tadpole improvement 2 at treeand at one-loop level, as well as within the MCRG (or “perfect action”)...
متن کاملTowards Highly Improved Quark Actions
We describe two ideas useful in the construction of highly improved quark actions for simulations on coarse lattices: (i) Field transformations solve the doubler problem without destroying tree-level improvement for onor off-shell quantities. The simplest example is the Sheikholeslami-Wohlert (clover) action. Going to the next order of improvement yields the class of D234 actions. (ii) Anisotro...
متن کاملImproved gluonic actions on anisotropic lattices
The use of novel perturbatively-improved gluonic actions on anisotropic lattices in which the temporal spacing is much smaller than that in the spatial directions is discussed. Such actions permit more efficient measurements of noisy correlation functions, such as glueball correlators, on coarse lattices. A derivation of these actions at tree-level is outlined; mean-field link renormalization p...

Charmed meson charmonium spectra are studied with improved quark actions on anisotropic lattices. We measured the pseudo-scalar and vector meson dispersion relations for 4 lowest lattice momentum modes with quark mass values ranging from the strange quark to charm quark with 3 different values of gauge coupling β and 4 different values of bare speed of light ν. With the bare speed of light para...
متن کاملThe Schrödinger Functional for Improved Gluon and Quark Actions
The Schrödinger functional (quantum/lattice field theory with Dirichlet boundary conditions) is a powerful tool in the non-perturbative improvement and for the study of other aspects of lattice QCD. Here we adapt it to improved gluon and quark actions, on isotropic as well as anisotropic lattices. Specifically, we describe the structure of the boundary layers, obtain the exact form of the class...
