Non-perturbative renormalization factors of bilinear quark operators for Kogut-Susskind fermions and light quark masses in quenched QCD

Light quark masses are computed for Kogut-Susskind fermions by evaluating non-perturbatively the renormalization factor for bilinear quark operators. Calculations are carried out in the quenched approximation at β=6.0, 6.2, and 6.4. For the average up and down quark mass we find $m_{\bar MS}(2 GeV)= 4.15(27) MeV$ in the continuum limit, which is significantly larger than $3.51(20) MeV$ ($q^*=1/a$) or $3.40(21) MeV$ ($q^*=π/a$) obtained with the one-loop perturbative renormalization factor.

Phase structure of lattice QCD at finite temperature for 2+1 flavors of Kogut-Susskind quarks

We report on a study of the finite-temperature chiral transition on an $N_t=4$ lattice for 2+1 flavors of Kogut-Susskind quarks. We find the point of physical quark masses to lie in the region of crossover, in agreement with results of previous studies. Results of a detailed examination of the $m_{u,d}=m_s$ case indicate vanishing of the screening mass of $σ$ meson at the end point of the first-order transition.

$K^{+}\toπ^{+}π^{0}$ Decay Amplitude with the Wilson Quark Action in Quenched Lattice QCD

We present a calculation for the $K^+\toπ^+ π^0 $ decay amplitude using a quenched simulation of lattice QCD with the Wilson quark action at $β=6/g^2=6.1$. The decay amplitude is extracted from the ratio, the $K\toππ$ three-point function divided by either $K$ and $π$ meson two-point functions or $K$ meson two-point function and I=2 $ππ$ four-point function; the two different methods yield consistent results. Finite size effects are examined with calculations made on $24^3\times 64$ and $32^3\times 64$ lattices, and are shown that they are explained by one-loop effects of chiral perturbation theory. The lattice amplitude is converted to the continuum value by employing a one-loop calculation of chiral perturbation theory, yielding a value in agreement with experiment if extrapolated to the chiral limit. We also report on the $K$ meson $B$ parameter $B_K$ obtained from the $K^+\toπ^+π^0$ amplitude using chiral perturbation theory.

B meson decay constant from quenched Lattice QCD

A lattice QCD calculation of the B meson decay constant is presented. In order to investigate the scaling violation associated with the heavy quark, parallel simulations are carried out employing both Wilson and the O(a)-improved clover actions for the heavy quark. The discretization errors due to the large $b$ quark mass are estimated in a systematic way with the aid of the non-relativistic interpretation approach of El-Khadra, Kronfeld and Mackenzie. As our best value from the quenched simulations at $β$=5.9, 6.1 and 6.3 we obtain $f_B$=163$\pm$16 MeV and $f_{B_s}$=175$\pm$18 MeV in the continuum limit where the error includes both statistical and systematic uncertainties.

B meson decay constant with the Wilson and Clover heavy quark actions

We present results of our quenched study of the B meson decay constant obtained with a parallel set of simulations with the Wilson and Clover actions at β=5.9, 6.1 and 6.3. Systematic errors associated with the large b-quark mass are analyzed within the Fermilab non-relativistic formalism. As our best estimate in the continuum limit we obtain $f_B=163 \pm 16 MeV$ and $f_{B_s}=175 \pm 18 MeV$ with the Clover action.

Heavy quark mass dependence of semileptonic form factors for B decays

We present our study of the dependence of the heavy-to-light semileptonic B decay form factors on the heavy-light meson mass $M_{PS}$. Simulations are made over a range of the heavy quark mass covering both the charm and bottom quarks using the $O(a)$-improved clover action at $β=5.9$ on a $16^3\times 40$ and $24^3\times 64$ lattice. We find that a weak dependence of form factors on $M_{PS}$ observed in previous studies in the region of charm quark persists up to the region of$b$ quark. The soft pion relation $f^0(q^2_{max})=f_B/f_π$ is examined and found to be largely violated.

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

We present a detailed description of the method and results of our calculation of the kaon B parameter using the Wilson quark action in quenched QCD at $β=5.9-6.5$. The mixing problem of the $Δs=2$ four-quark operators is solved non-perturbatively with full use of chiral Ward identities. We find $B_K(NDR, 2 GeV)=0.562(64)$ in the continuum limit, which agrees with the value obtained with the Kogut-Susskind quark action.

The Light Quark Masses with the Wilson Quark Action using Chiral Ward Identities

We present results for the light quark masses for the Wilson quark action obtained with the PCAC relation for the one-link extended axial vector current in quenched QCD at $β=5.9-6.5$. This method leads to a remarkable improvement of scaling behavior of the light quark masses compared to the conventional method. We obtain ${\bar m}_l=3.87(37)$MeV for the averaged up and down quark mass and ${\bar m}_s=97(9)$MeV for the strange quark mass in the ${\barMS}$ scheme at $μ=2$GeV.

$K^{+}\toπ^{+}π^{0}$ Decay Amplitude in Quenched Lattice QCD

A new study is reported of a lattice QCD calculation of the $K^+\toπ^+ π^0 $ decay amplitude with the Wilson quark action in the quenched approximation at $β=6.1$. The amplitude is extracted from the $K\toππ$ Green function, and a conversion to the continuum value is made employing a recent one-loop calculation of chiral perturbation theory. The result is consistent with the experimental value if extrapolated to the chiral limit.

Kaon B parameter from quenched Lattice QCD

We present results of a large-scale simulation for the Kaon B parameter $B_K$ in quenched lattice QCD with the Kogut-Susskind quark action. Calculating $B_K$ at 1% statistical accuracy for seven values of lattice spacing in the range $a\approx 0.24-0.04$ fm on lattices up to $56^3\times 96$, we verify a quadratic $a$ dependence of $B_K$ theoretically predicted. Strong indications are found that, with our level of accuracy, $α_{\bar{MS}}(1/a)^2$ terms arising from our one-loop matching procedure have to be included in the continuum extrapolation. We present $B_K$(NDR, 2 GeV)=0.628(42) as our final value, as obtained by a fit including the $α_{\bar{MS}}(1/a)^2$ term.

Hadron spectroscopy and static quark potential in full QCD: A comparison of improved actions on the CP-PACS

We present first results from a full QCD calculation on the CP-PACS, comparing various actions at $a^{-1} \sim 1 GeV$ and $m_π/m_ρ\approx 0.7$--0.9. We use the plaquette and a renormalization group improved action for the gluons, and the Wilson and the SW-Clover action for quarks. We find that significant improvements in the hadron spectrum results from improving the quarks, while the gluon improvement is required for a rotationally invariant static potential. An ongoing effort towards exploring the chiral limit in full QCD is described.

CP-PACS results for quenched QCD spectrum with the Wilson action

We present progress report of a CP-PACS calculation of quenched QCD spectrum with the Wilson quark action. Light hadron masses and meson decay constants are obtained at $β=$5.9, 6.1, and 6.25 on lattices with a physical extent of 3 fm, and for the range of quark mass corresponding to $m_π/m_ρ\approx 0.75$ $-$ 0.4. Nucleon mass at each $β$ appears to be a convex function of quark mass, and consequently the value at the physical quark mass is much smaller than previously thought. Hadron masses extrapolated to the continuum limit exhibits a significant deviation from experimental values: with $K$ meson mass to fix strange quark mass, strange meson and baryon masses are systematically lower. Light quark masses determined from the axial Ward identity are shown to agree with those from perturbation theory in the continuum limit. Decay constants of mesons are also discussed.

Results for Quenched $B_K$ from JLQCD

A report is presented on our continued effort to elucidate the continuum limit of $B_K$ using the quenched Kogut-Susskind quark action. By adding to our previous simulations one more point at $β= 6.65$ employing a $56^3\times 96$ lattice, we now confirm the expected $O(a^2)$ behavior of $B_K$ with the Kogut-Susskind action. A simple continuum extrapolation quadratic in $a$ leads to $B_K$(NDR, 2 GeV) = 0.598(5). As our final value of $B_K$ in the continuum we present $B_K$(NDR, 2 GeV)=0.628(42), as obtained by a fit including an $α_{\bar{MS}}(1/a)^2$ term arising from the lattice-continuum matching with the one-loop renormalization.

Two-Flavor Chiral Phase Transition in Lattice QCD with the Kogut-Susskind Quark Action

A summary is presented of a scaling study of the finite-temperature chiral phase transition of two-flavor QCD with the Kogut-Susskind quark action based on simulations on $L^3\times4$ ($L$=8, 12 and 16) lattices at the quark mass of $m_q=0.075, 0.0375, 0.02$ and 0.01. We find a phase transition to be absent for $m_q\geq 0.02$, and also quite likely at $m_q=0.01$. The quark mass dependence of susceptibilities is consistent with a second-order transition at $m_q=0$. The exponents, however, deviate from the O(2) and O(4) values theoretically expected.

Scaling Study of the Two-Flavor Chiral Phase Transition with the Kogut-Susskind Quark Action in Lattice QCD

We report on a study of two-flavor finite-temperature chiral phase transition employing the Kogut-Susskind quark action and the plaquette gluon action in lattice QCD for a lattice with $N_t=4$ temporal size. Hybrid R simulations of $10^4$ trajectories are made at quark masses of $m_q=0.075, 0.0375, 0.02, 0.01$ in lattice units for the spatial sizes $8^3, 12^3$ and $16^3$. The spatial size dependence of various susceptibilities confirm the previous conclusion of the absence of a phase transition down to $m_q=0.02$. At $m_q=0.01$ an increase of susceptibilities is observed up to the largest volume $16^3$ explored in the present work. We argue, however, that this increase is likely to be due to an artifact of too small a lattice size and it cannot be taken to be the evidence for a first-order transition. Analysis of critical exponents estimated from the quark mass dependence of susceptibilities shows that they satisfy hyperscaling consistent with a second-order transition located at $m_q=0$. The exponents obtained from larger lattice, however, deviate significantly from both those of O(2), which is the exact symmetry group of the Kogut-Susskind action at finite lattice spacing, and those of O(4) expected from an effective sigma model analysis in the continuum limit.

Full QCD simulation on CP-PACS

A status report is made of an on-going full QCD study on the CP-PACS aiming at a comparative analysis of the effects of improving gauge and quark actions on hadronic quantities and static quark potential. Simulations are made for four action combinations, the plaquette or an RG-improved action for gluons and the Wilson or SW-clover action for quarks, at $a^{-1} \approx 1.1$-1.3GeV and $m_π/m_ρ\approx 0.7$-0.9. Results demonstrate clearly that the clover term markedly reduces discretization errors for hadron spectrum, while adding six-link terms to the plaquette action leads to much better rotational symmetry in the potential. These results extend experience with quenched simulations to full QCD.

Scaling Analysis of Chiral Phase Transition for Two Flavors of Kogut-Susskind Quarks

Report is made of a systematic scaling study of the finite-temperature chiral phase transition of two-flavor QCD with the Kogut-Susskind quark action based on simulations on $L^3\times4$ ($L$=8, 12 and 16) lattices at the quark mass of $m_q=0.075, 0.0375, 0.02$ and 0.01. Our finite-size data show that a phase transition is absent for $m_q\geq 0.02$, and quite likely also at $m_q=0.01$. The scaling behavior of susceptibilities as a function of $m_q$ is consistent with a second-order transition at $m_q=0$. However, the exponents deviate from the O(2) or O(4) values theoretically expected.
