Heavy-light decay constants from relativistic Nf=2,0 QCD

We present results on an analysis of the decay constants fB and fBs with two flavours of sea quark. The calculation has been carried out on 3 different bare gauge couplings and 4 sea quark masses at each gauge coupling, with m_pi/m_rho ranging from 0.8 to 0.6. We employ the Fermilab formalism to perform calculations with heavy quarks whose mass is in the range of the b-quark. A comparison with a quenched calculation using the same action is made to elucidate the effects due to the sea quarks.

Equation of state for pure SU(3) gauge theory with renormalization group improved action

A lattice study of the equation of state for pure SU(3) gauge theory using a renormalization-group (RG) improved action is presented. The energy density and pressure are calculated on a $16^3\times 4$ and a $32^3\times 8$ lattice employing the integral method. Extrapolating the results to the continuum limit, we find the energy density and pressure to be in good agreement with those obtained with the standard plaquette action within the error of 3-4%.

Equation of state in finite-temperature QCD with improved Wilson quarks

We study finite-temperature phase transition and equation of state for two-flavor QCD at $N_t=4$ using an RG-improved gauge action and a meanfield-improved clover quark action. The pressure is computed using the integral method. The O(4) scaling of chiral order parameter is also examined.

Light hadron spectrum and quark masses in QCD with two flavors of dynamical quarks

We present updated results of the CP-PACS calculation of the light hadron spectrum in $N_{\rm f}=2$ full QCD. Simulations are made with an RG-improved gauge action and a tadpole-improved clover quark action for sea quark masses corresponding to $m_{\rm PS}/m_{\rm V} \approx 0.8$--0.6 and the lattice spacing $a=0.22$--0.09 fm. A comparison of the full QCD spectrum with new quenched results, obtained with the same improved action, shows clearly the existence of sea quark effects in vector meson masses. Results for light quark masses in $N_{\rm f}=2$ QCD are also presented.

Heavy-light decay constants from clover heavy quark action in QCD with two flavors of dynamical quarks

We present results on an analysis of the decay constants f_B and f_Bs with two flavours of sea quark. The calculation has been carried out on 3 different bare gauge couplings and 4 sea quark masses at each gauge coupling, with m_pi/m_rho ranging from 0.8 to 0.6. We employ the Fermilab formalism to perform calculations with heavy quarks whose mass is in the range of the b-quark. A detailed comparison with a quenched calculation using the same action is made to elucidate the effects due to the sea quarks.

Quenched QCD with domain-wall fermions on coarse lattices

We investigate the existence of chiral zero modes at a^{-1} \simeq 1 GeV in quenched domain-wall QCD. Simulations are carried out for the plaquette and an RG-improved gauge actions on a 12^3x24xN_s lattice with N_s=10-50. We find that the pion mass in the chiral limit remains non-vanishing as N_s\to\infty for both gauge actions. Possible origins of this non-vanishing pion mass are discussed.

Hybrid Quarkonia on Asymmetric Lattices

We report on a study of heavy hybrid states using the NRQCD approach on coarse and asymmetric lattices, where we discard vacuum polarisation effects and neglect all spin-correction terms. We find a clear hybrid signal on all our lattices ($a_s= 0.15 ... 0.47$ fm). We have studied in detail the lattice spacing artefacts, finite volume effects and mass dependence. Within the above approximations we predict the hybrid excitation in Charmonium to be 1.323(13) GeV above its ground state. The bottomonium hybrid was found to be 1.542(8) GeV above its ground state.

B meson leptonic decay constant with quenched lattice NRQCD

We present a lattice NRQCD study of the B meson decay constant in the quenched approximation with emphasis given to the scaling behavior. The NRQCD action and the heavy-light axial current we use include all terms of order 1/M and the perturbative $O(α_s a)$ and $O(α_s/M)$ corrections. Using simulations at three value of couplings $β$=5.7, 5.9 and 6.1 on lattices of size $12^3\times 32, 16^3\times 48$ and $24^3\times 64$, we find no significant $a$ dependence in $f_B$ if the $O(α_s a)$ correction is included in the axial current. We obtain $f_B = 167(7)(15)$ MeV, $f_{B_s}= 191(4)(17)(^{+4}_{-0})$ MeV and $f_{B_s}/f_B =1.15(3)(1)(^{+3}_{-0})$, with the first error being statistical, the second systematic, and the third due to uncertainty of strange quark mass, while quenching errors being not included.

Performance of lattice QCD programs on CP-PACS

The CP-PACS is a massively parallel MIMD computer with the theoretical peak speed of 614 GFLOPS which has been developed for computational physics applications at the University of Tsukuba, Japan. We report on the performance of the CP-PACS computer measured during recent production runs using our Quantum Chromodynamics code for the simulation of quarks and gluons in particle physics. With the full 2048 processing nodes, our code shows a sustained speed of 237.5 GFLOPS for the heat-bath update of gluon variables, 264.6 GFLOPS for the over-relaxation update, and 325.3 GFLOPS for quark matrix inversion with an even-odd preconditioned minimal residual algorithm.

Quenched Light Hadron Spectrum

We present results of a large-scale simulation for the flavor non-singlet light hadron spectrum in quenched lattice QCD with the Wilson quark action. Hadron masses are calculated at four values of lattice spacing in the range $a \approx$ 0.1 - 0.05 fm on lattices with a physical extent of 3 fm at five quark masses corresponding to $m_π/m_ρ\approx 0.75$ - 0.4. The calculated spectrum in the continuum limit shows a systematic deviation from experiment, though the magnitude of deviation is contained within 11%. Results for decay constants and light quark masses are also reported.

The Kaon B-parameter with the Wilson Quark Action using Chiral Ward Identities

A lattice QCD calculation of the kaon $B$ parameter $B_K$ is carried out with the Wilson quark action in the quenched approximation at $β=6/g^2=5.9-6.5$. The mixing problem of the $Δs=2$ four-quark operators is solved non-perturbatively with full use of chiral Ward identities employing four external quarks with an equal off-shell momentum in the Landau gauge. This method, without invoking any effective theory, enables us to construct the weak four-quark operators exhibiting good chiral behavior. Our results for $B_K$ with the non-perturbative mixing coefficients show small scaling violation beyond the lattice cut-off $a^{-1}\sim 2.5 $GeV. Our estimate concludes $B_K(NDR, 2 GeV)=0.69(7)$ at $a^{-1}=2.7-4.3$GeV, which agrees with the value obtained with the Kogut-Susskind quark action. For comparison we also calculate $B_K$ with one-loop perturbative mixing coefficients. While this yields incorrect values at finite lattice spacing, a linear extrapolation to the continuum limit as a function of $a$ leads to a result consistent with those obtained with the Ward identity method.

Comparative Study of full QCD Hadron Spectrum and Static Quark Potential with Improved Actions

We investigate effects of action improvement on the light hadron spectrum and the static quark potential in two-flavor QCD for $a^{-1} \approx 1$ GeV and $m_{PS}/m_V = 0.7-0.9$. We compare a renormalization group improved action with the plaquette action for gluons, and the SW-clover action with the Wilson action for quarks. We find a significant improvement in the hadron spectrum by improving the quark action, while the gluon improvement is crucial for a rotationally invariant static potential. We also explore the region of light quark masses corresponding to $m_{PS}/m_V \geq 0.4$ on a 2.7 fm lattice using the improved gauge and quark action. A flattening of the potential is not observed up to 2 fm.

Non-perturbative determination of quark masses in quenched lattice QCD with the Kogut-Susskind fermion action

We report results of quark masses in quenched lattice QCD with the Kogut-Susskind fermion action, employing the Reguralization Independent scheme (RI) of Martinelli et al. to non-perturbatively evaluate the renormalization factor relating the bare quark mass on the lattice to that in the continuum. Calculations are carried out at β=6.0, 6.2, and 6.4, from which we find $m^{\bar{MS}}_{ud} (2 GeV)= 4.23(29) MeV$ for the average up and down quark mass and, with the $ϕ$ meson mass as input, $m^{\bar{MS}}_{s} (2 GeV)= 129(12) MeV$ for the strange mass in the continuum limit. These values are about 20% larger than those obtained with the one-loop perturbative renormalization factor.

The static quark potential in full QCD

We report results on the static quark potential in two-flavor full QCD. The calculation is performed for three values of lattice spacing $a^{-1}\approx 0.9, 1.3$ and 2.5 GeV on $12^3{\times}24, 16^3{\times}32$ and $24^3{\times}48$ lattices respectively, at sea quark masses corresponding to $m_π/m_ρ\approx 0.8-0.6$. An RG-improved gauge action and a tadpole-improved SW clover quark action are employed. We discuss scaling of $m_ρ/\sqrtσ$ and effects of dynamical quarks on the potential.

Hadron matrix elements for nucleon decay with the Wilson quark action

We report preliminary results of our study of matrix elements of baryon number violating operators which appear in the low-energy effective Lagrangian of (SUSY-)Grand Unified Theories. The calculation is performed on a $32^{3}\times80$ lattice at $β=6.1$ using Wilson fermions in the quenched approximation. Our calculation is independent of details of (SUSY-)GUT models and covers all interesting decay modes.

Scaling behavior of $f_{B}$ with NRQCD

We investigate the scaling behavior of the $B$ meson decay constant $f_B$ and $f_{B_{s}}$ at $β$$=$$5.7, 5.9, 6.1$, employing the NRQCD heavy quark action and the clover light quark action. Mixing effect from dimension-4 operator in the heavy-light axial-vector current is studied, and we find that the $a$ dependence of $f_B$ is significantly reduced. Our preliminary result for the decay constants in the quenched approximation is $f_{B}$$=$$162(^{+35}_{-18})$ MeV, $f_{B_{s}}$$=$$190(^{+40}_{-19})$ MeV, and $f_{B_{s}}/f_{B}$$=$$1.18(^{+6}_{-6})$.
