Properties of hadron screening masses at small baryonic density

The properties of hadron screening masses around the deconfinement phase transition at finite baryonic density can be studied by evaluating the Taylor coefficients with respect to the iso-scalar and iso-vector chemical potentials. We simulate 2-flavour lattice QCD with staggered fermions on a 12*12*24*6 lattice with ma = 0.05 and 0.10 and report investigations of nucleon, pseudo-scalar and vector mesons. We present new, strong evidence that in the confining phase, the screening masses at vanishing chemical potential have significant temperature dependence, but the effect of the iso-scalar chemical potential is very small. Above the critical temperature, the second derivative terms of mesons rapidly increase as contrasted to the case of baryon. We also study the responses of the screening masses to an iso-vector chemical potential and discuss some of the issues related to the properties of hadron masses at finite density.

Contribution of disconnected diagrams to the hyperfine splitting of charmonium

We discuss the contribution of OZI-suppressed diagrams to the hyperfine splitting of charmonium in lattice QCD. We study valence quark mass regions from strange to charm quark masses. No contribution of the disconnected diagram is seen in the vector meson channel. In the pseudo-scalar channel and for valence quark masses around the strange quark, the disconnected contribution induces a considerable increase of the meson mass. This contribution quickly decreases as the quark mass increases. For charmonium the effect is very small although a decrease of the pseudoscalar mass induced by the disconnected contribution cannot be ruled out.

Screening mass responses to the chemical potential at finite temperature

Responses to chemical potential of the pseudoscalar meson screening mass and the chiral condensate in lattice QCD are investigated. On a $16 \times 8^2 \times \4$ lattice with two flavors of staggered quarks the first and second responses below and above $T_c$ are evaluated. Different behavior in the low and the high temperature phases are observed, which may be explained as a consequence of the chiral symmetry breaking and restoration.

Responses of hadrons to chemical potential at finite temperature

We present a framework to compute the responses of hadron masses to the chemical potential in lattice QCD simulations. As a first trial, the screening mass of the pseudoscalar meson and its first and second responses are evaluated. We present results on a $16\times 8^2\times 4$ lattice with two flavors of staggered quarks below and above $T_c$. The responses to both the isoscalar and isovector chemical potentials are obtained. They show different behavior in the low and the high temperature phases, which may be explained as a consequence of chiral symmetry breaking and restoration, respectively.

Quenched charmonium near the continuum limit

We study relativistic charmonium on very fine quenched lattices (beta=6.4 and 6.6). We concentrate on the calculation of the hyperfine splitting between eta_c and J/psi, aiming for a controlled continuum extrapolation of this quantity. Results for the eta_c and J/psi wave functions are also presented.

Chemical potential response of meson masses at finite temperature

We study the response of meson masses to the chemical potential ($\partial{m}/\partialμ$) at high temperature and at zero chemical potential on $N_f=2$ lattice with staggered fermions. Preliminary results for the meson composed of different quarks show that $\partial{m}/\partialμ|_{μ=0}$ is negative in the confinement phase and positive in the deconfinement phase.

Meson Correlators in Finite Temperature Lattice QCD

We analyze temporal and spatial meson correlators in quenched lattice QCD at T>0. Below T_c we observe little change in the meson properties as compared with T=0. Above T_c we observe new features: chiral symmetry restoration and signals of plasma formation, but also indication of persisting mesonic (metastable) states and different temporal and spatial masses in the mesonic channels. This suggests a complex picture of QGP in the region 1 - 1.5 T_c.

A Study of Meson Correlators at Finite Temperature

We present results for mesonic propagators in temporal and spatial directions at T below and above the deconfining transition in quenched QCD. Anisotropic lattices are used to get enough information in the temporal direction. We use the Wilson fermion action for light quarks and Fermilab action for heavy quarks.

Monte Carlo Renormalization Group analysis of QCD in two dimensional coupling space

We report our results of the Monte Carlo Renormalization Group analysis in two dimensional coupling space. The qualitative features of the RG flow are described with a phenomenological RG equation. The dependence on the lattice spacing for various actions provides the conditions to determine the parameters entering the RG equation.

Mesons Above The Deconfining Transition

We analyze temporal and spatial meson correlators in quenched lattice QCD at T>0. Above T_c we find different masses and (spatial) screening masses, signals of plasma formation, and indication of persisting mesonic excitations.

Effects of Chemical Potential on Hadron Masses at Finite Temperature

We study the effects of the chemical potential on the $ρ$ meson mass at finite temperature. Our preliminary results show that some effects are seen in the vicinity of the phase transition point. Although the signal is still too noisy to obtain conclusive physical results within limited statistics, the mass susceptibility is consistent with zero.

Renormalization Group Flow of SU(3) Gauge Theory

We calculate numerically the renormalization group (RG) flow of lattice QCD in two-coupling space, $(β_{1\times 1},β_{1\times 2})$. This is the first explicit calculation of the RG flow of SU(3) gauge theory. From the RG flow,a renormalized trajectory (RT) is revealed. Its behavior is consistent with the strong coupling expansion near the high-temperature fixed point. Actions with $(β_{1\times 1},β_{1\times 2})$ are studied; the lattice spacing is evaluated by measuring the string tension from the heavy quark potential. Recovery of the rotational symmetry is studied as a function of the ratio $β_{1\times 2} / β_{1\times 1}$.
