Excited nucleon spectrum from lattice QCD with maximum entropy method
نویسنده
چکیده
We study excited states of the nucleon in quenched lattice QCD with the spectral analysis using the maximum entropy method. Our simulations are performed on three lattice sizes 16 × 32, 24 × 32 and 32 × 32, at β = 6.0 to address the finite volume issue. We find a significant finite volume effect on the mass of the Roper resonance for light quark masses. After removing this systematic error, its mass becomes considerably reduced toward the direction to solve the level order puzzle between the Roper resonance N ′(1440) and the negative-parity nucleon N∗(1535).

We present preliminary results from the first attempt to reconstruct the spectral function in the nucleon and ∆ channels from lattice QCD data using the maximum entropy method (MEM). An advantage of the MEM analysis is to enable us to access information of the excited state spectrum. Performing simulations on two lattice volumes, we confirm the large finite size effect on the first excited nucl...
متن کاملThe parity partner of the nucleon in quenched QCD with domain wall fermions
We present preliminary results for the mass spectrum of the nucleon and its low-lying excited states from quenched lattice QCD using the domain wall fermion method which preserves the chiral symmetry at finite lattice cutoff. Definite mass splitting is observed between the nucleon and its parity partner. This splitting grows with decreasing valence quark mass. We also present preliminary data r...
متن کاملMaximum entropy analysis of hadron spectral functions and excited states in quenched lattice QCD
Employing the maximum entropy method we extract the spectral functions from meson correlators at four lattice spacings in quenched QCD with the Wilson quark action. We confirm that the masses and decay constants, obtained from the position and the area of peaks, agree well with the results from the conventional exponential fit. For the first excited state, we obtain mπ1 = 660(590) MeV, mρ1 = 15...
متن کاملLattice Gauge Theory - Qcd from Quarks to Hadrons
Lattice Gauge Theory enables an ab initio study of the low-energy properties of Quantum Chromodynamics, the theory of the strong interaction. I begin these lectures by presenting the lattice formulation of QCD, and then outline the benchmark calculation of lattice QCD, the light-hadron spectrum. I then proceed to explore the predictive power of lattice QCD, in particular as it pertains to hadro...
متن کاملLatest results from lattice QCD for the Roper resonance
In the excited baryon spectrum, of particular interest is the level order of the positive-parity excited nucleon, so-called the Roper resonance N (1440) and the negative-parity nucleon N(1535). It is worth mentioning that this pattern of the level order between positive and negative-parity excited states can be found universally in the ∆, Σ and flavor-octet Λ channels. It is also interesting to...
