Review of Unquenched Results
نویسنده
چکیده
One of the major frontiers of lattice field theory is the inclusion of light fermions in simulations, particularly in pursuit of accurate, first principles predictions from lattice QCD. With dedicated Teraflops-scale computers currently simulating QCD, another step towards precision full QCD simulations is underway. In addition to ongoing staggered and Wilson fermion simulations, first results from full QCD with domain wall fermions are available. After some discussion of work toward better algorithms, simulations completed to date will be discussed.

Precision determination of r₀ΛMS from the QCD static energy.
We use the recently obtained theoretical expression for the complete QCD static energy at next-to-next-to-next-to leading-logarithmic accuracy to determine r₀ΛMS by comparison with available lattice data, where r₀ is the lattice scale and ΛMS is the QCD scale. We obtain r₀ΛMS=0.637(+0.032)(-0.030) [corrected] for the zero-flavor case. The procedure we describe can be directly used to obtain r₀Λ...
متن کاملStatus of Lattice Flavor Physics
This talk reviews recent lattice QCD calculations relevant for quark flavor physics. Since lattice results must be accurate and precise to play a definitive role in phenomenology, the focus is on unquenched results of quantities which can be calculated most reliably.
متن کاملDecay constants of P - wave heavy - light mesons from unquenched lattice QCD
We review some decays that require knowledge of the decay constants of 0 + heavy-light mesons. We compute the decay constants of P-wave heavy-light mesons from unquenched lattice QCD at a single lattice spacing. For the charm-strange meson we obtain the decay constant: fD s 0 + = 340(110) MeV using our normalisation conventions. We obtain the f static Ps (static-strange P-wave) decay constant a...
متن کاملUnquenched QCD simulation results
The recent progress on unquenched QCD simulations is critically reviewed. After some discussions on problems and subtleties in unquenched simulations, hadron spectra obtained from both quenched and unquenched simulations are compared among various gauge and quark actions. It is found that the Edinburgh plot does not agree in the continuum limit between Wilson and KS quark actions even in quench...
متن کاملFull QED+QCD low-energy constants through reweighting.
The effect of sea quark electromagnetic charge on meson masses is investigated, and first results for full QED+QCD low-energy constants are presented. The electromagnetic charge for sea quarks is incorporated in quenched QED+full QCD lattice simulations by a reweighting method. The reweighting factor, which connects quenched and unquenched QED, is estimated using a stochastic method on 2+1 flav...
