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.

Eta meson mass and topology in QCD with two light flavors

We present results for the mass of the flavor singlet meson calculated on two-flavor full QCD configurations generated by the CP-PACS full QCD project. We also investigate topological charge fluctuations and their dependence on the sea quark mass.

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.

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 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.

Quenched Light Hadron Spectrum with the Wilson Quark Action: Final Results from CP-PACS

We report the final results of the CP-PACS calculation for the quenched light hadron spectrum with the Wilson quark action. Our data support the presence of quenched chiral singularities, and this motivates us to use mass formulae based on quenched chiral perturbation theory in order to extrapolate hadron masses to the physical point. Hadron masses and decay constants in the continuum limit show unambiguous systematic deviations from experiment. We also report the results for light quark masses.

Full QCD light hadron spectrum from the CP-PACS

We report on an on-going two-flavor full QCD study on CP-PACS using an RG-improved gauge action and a tadpole-improved SW quark action. Runs are made for three lattice spacings $a^{-1}\approx 0.9$, 1.3, and 2.5 GeV on $12^3\times24$, $16^3\times32$, and $24^3\times48$ lattices. Four sea quark masses having $m_{\rm PS}/m_{\rm V} \approx 0.8$--0.6 are simulated, for each of which hadron masses are evaluated for valence quark masses corresponding to $m_{\rm PS}/m_{\rm V} \approx 0.8$--0.5. Results for hadron and light quark masses are presented and compared with those obtained in quenched QCD.

Heavy Quark Physics in Nf=2 QCD

We present a preliminary analysis of the heavy-heavy spectrum and heavy-light decay constants in full QCD, using a tadpole-improved SW quark action and an RG-improved gauge action on a 16^3 x 32 lattice with four sea quark masses corresponding to m_pi/m_rho = 0.8, 0.75, 0.7, 0.6 and a^-1 = 1.3 GeV. We focus particularly on the effect of sea quarks on these observables.

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.
