Baryon Spectroscopy on the Lattice
نویسنده
چکیده
Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) provides an excellent description of nature; however, the theory suffers from divergences that must be removed to render it finite. Lattice QCD provides an apriori non-perturbative regularization of QCD that makes it amenable to analytic and computational methods. No model assumptions other than QCD itself are needed to formulate the theory. This review surveys the rapidly evolving work in using Lattice QCD for calculations of baryon spectroscopy. Along the way, sources of systematic uncertainties in calculations are described and future directions are outlined.

Baryon Spectroscopy in Lattice QCD
We review recent developments in the study of excited baryon spectroscopy in lattice QCD. After introducing the basic methods used to extract masses from correlation functions, we discuss various interpolating fields and lattice actions commonly used in the literature. We present a survey of results of recent calculations of excited baryons in quenched QCD, and outline possible future direction...
متن کاملMatrix elements and baryon spectroscopy from unquenched lattice QCD with improved staggered
We look for the effect of open decay channels on the masses of baryons in unquenched lattice QCD. We apply variational smearing using fuzzed basis states to a staggered nucleon operator. The signal for ¯ ss current in the nucleon is studied. The lattice calculations are done using improved staggered fermions. Baryon spectroscopy with improved staggered quarks.
متن کامل3244 Southampton Preprint SHEP - 95 / 31 Heavy Baryon Spectroscopy from the Lattice UKQCD Collaboration
The results of an exploratory lattice study of heavy baryon spectroscopy are presented. We have computed the full spectrum of the eight baryons containing a single heavy quark, on a 24 3 × 48 lattice at β = 6.2, using an O(a)-improved fermion action. We discuss the lattice baryon operators and give a method for isolating the contributions of the spin doublets (Σ, Σ *), (Ξ ′ , Ξ *) and (Ω, Ω *) ...

The results of an exploratory lattice study of heavy baryon spectroscopy are presented. We have computed the full spectrum of the eight baryons containing a single heavy quark, on a 24348 lattice at b56.2, using an O(a)-improved fermion action. We discuss the lattice baryon operators and give a method for isolating the contributions of the spin doublets (S ,S*), (J8,J*), and (V ,V*) to the corr...
