SU(2) and SU(3) chiral perturbation theory analyses on baryon masses in 2+1 flavor lattice QCD

We investigate the quark mass dependence of baryon masses in 2+1 flavor lattice QCD using SU(3) heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory up to one-loop order. The baryon mass data used for the analyses are obtained for the degenerate up-down quark mass of 3 MeV to 24 MeV and two choices of the strange quark mass around the physical value. We find that the SU(3) chiral expansion fails to describe both the octet and the decuplet baryon data if phenomenological values are employed for the meson-baryon couplings. The SU(2) case is also examined for the nucleon. We observe that higher order terms are controlled only around the physical point. We also evaluate finite size effects using SU(3) heavy baryon chiralperturbation theory, finding small values of order 1% even at the physical point.

Application of block Krylov subspace algorithms to the Wilson-Dirac equation with multiple right-hand sides in lattice QCD

It is well known that the block Krylov subspace solvers work efficiently for some cases of the solution of differential equations with multiple right-hand sides. In lattice QCD calculation of physical quantities on a given configuration demands us to solve the Dirac equation with multiple sources. We show that a new block Krylov subspace algorithm recently proposed by the authors reduces the computational cost significantly without loosing numerical accuracy for the solution of the O(a)-improved Wilson-Dirac equation.

Charm quark system in 2+1 flavor lattice QCD using the PACS-CS configurations

We study heavy-heavy and heavy-light quark systems for charm with a relativistic heavy quark action in 2+1 flavor lattice QCD. Configurations are generated by the PACS-CS Collaboration at the lattice spacing is $a=0.09$ fm with the lattice size of $32^3\times 64$ employing the $O(a)$-improved Wilson quark action and the Iwasaki gauge action. We present preliminary results for the charmonium spectrum and the $D$ and $D_s$ meson decay constants evaluated at 3.5 MeV$< m_{\rm ud}<$ 12 MeV with $m_{\rm s}$ around the physical value. We investigate the dynamical quark mass dependences of the hyperfine and the orbital splittings. The decay constants are compared with the recent experimental values.

2+1 flavor lattice QCD simulation with $O(a)$-improved Wilson quarks

We present simulation details and results for the light hadron spectrum in N f = 2 + 1 lattice QCD with the nonperturbatively O(a)-improved Wilson quark action and the Iwasaki gauge action. Simulations are carried out at a lattice spacing of 0.09 fm on a (2.9fm)^3 box using the PACS-CS computer. We employ the Luscher's domain-decomposed HMC algorithm with several improvements to reduce the degenerate up-down quark mass toward the physical value. So far the resulting pseudoscalar meson mass is ranging from 702MeV down to 156MeV. We discuss on the stability and the efficiency of the algorithm. The light harden spectrum extrapolated at the physical point is compared with the experimental values. We also present the values of the quark masses and the pseudoscalar meson decay constants.

SU(2) and SU(3) chiral perturbation theory analyses on meson and baryon masses in 2+1 flavor lattice QCD

We investigate the quark mass dependence of meson and baryon masses obtained from 2+1 flavor dynamical quark simulations performed by the PACS-CS Collaboration. With the use of SU(2) and SU(3) chiral perturbation theories up to NLO, we examine the chiral behavior of the pseudoscalar meson masses and the decay constants in terms of the degenerate up-down quark mass ranging form 3 MeV to 24 MeV and two choices of the strange quark mass around the physical value. We discuss the convergence of the SU(2) and SU(3) chiral expansions and present the results for the low energy constants. We find that the SU(3) expansion is not convergent at NLO for the physical strange quark mass. The chiral behavior of the nucleon mass is also discussed based on the SU(2) heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory up to NNLO. Our results show that the expansion is well behaved only up to m_pi^2 ~ 0.2 GeV^2.

Full QCD calculation of neutron electric dipole moment with the external electric field method

We have calculated the neutron electric dipole moment (NEDM) in the presence of the CP violating $θ$ term in lattice QCD with 2-flavor dynamical clover quarks, using the external electric field method. Accumulating a large number of statistics by the averages over 16 different source points and over forward and backward nucleon propagators, we have obtained non-zero signals of neutron and proton EDM beyond one standard deviation at each quark mass in full QCD. We have investigated the quark mass dependence of nucleon EDM in full QCD, and have found that nucleon EDM in full QCD does not decrease toward the chiral limit, as opposed to the theoretical expectation. We briefly discuss possible reasons for this behavior.

Light quark masses from unquenched lattice QCD

We calculate the light meson spectrum and the light quark masses by lattice QCD simulation, treating all light quarks dynamically and employing the Iwasaki gluon action and the nonperturbatively O(a)-improved Wilson quark action. The calculations are made at the squared lattice spacings at an equal distance a^2~0.005, 0.01 and 0.015 fm^2, and the continuum limit is taken assuming an O(a^2) discretization error. The light meson spectrum is consistent with experiment. The up, down and strange quark masses in the \bar{MS} scheme at 2 GeV are \bar{m}=(m_{u}+m_{d})/2=3.55^{+0.65}_{-0.28} MeV and m_s=90.1^{+17.2}_{-6.1} MeV where the error includes statistical and all systematic errors added in quadrature. These values contain the previous estimates obtained with the dynamical u and d quarks within the error.

2+1 Flavor Lattice QCD toward the Physical Point

We present the first results of the PACS-CS project which aims to simulate 2+1 flavor lattice QCD on the physical point with the nonperturbatively $O(a)$-improved Wilson quark action and the Iwasaki gauge action. Numerical simulations are carried out at the lattice spacing of $a=0.0907(13)$fm on a $32^3\times 64$ lattice with the use of the DDHMC algorithm to reduce the up-down quark mass. Further algorithmic improvements make possible the simulation whose ud quark mass is as light as the physical value. The resulting PS meson masses range from 702MeV down to 156MeV, which clearly exhibit the presence of chiral logarithms. An analysis of the PS meson sector with SU(3) ChPT reveals that the NLO corrections are large at the physical strange quark mass. In order to estimate the physical ud quark mass, we employ the SU(2) chiral analysis expanding the strange quark contributions analytically around the physical strange quark mass. The SU(2) LECs ${\bar l}_3$ and ${\bar l}_4$ are comparable with the recent estimates by other lattice QCD calculations. We determine the physical point together with the lattice spacing employing $m_π$, $m_K$ and $m_Ω$ as input. The hadron spectrum extrapolated to the physical point shows an agreement with the experimental values at a few % level of statistical errors, albeit there remain possible cutoff effects. We also find that our results of $f_π=134.0(4.2)$MeV, $f_K=159.4(3.1)$MeV and $f_K/f_π=1.189(20)$ with the perturbative renormalization factors are compatible with the experimental values. For the physical quark masses we obtain $m_{\rm ud}^\msbar=2.527(47)$MeV and $m_{\rm s}^\msbar=72.72(78)$MeV extracted from the axial-vector Ward-Takahashi identity with the perturbative renormalization factors.

Light hadron spectrum with 2+1 flavor dynamical $O(a)$-improved Wilson quarks

We present preliminary results for the light harden spectrum in $N_f=2+1$ lattice QCD obtained with the nonperturbatively $O(a)$-improved Wilson quark action and the Iwasaki gauge action. Simulations are carried out at $β=1.90$ on a $32^3 \times 64$ lattice using the PACS-CS computer. We employ Lüscher's domain-decomposed HMC algorithm to reduce the up-down quark masses toward the physical value. The pseudoscalar meson masses range from 730 MeV down to 210 MeV. We compare the light harden spectrum extrapolated to the physical point with the experimental values.

Application of chiral perturbation theory to 2+1 flavor lattice QCD with O(a)-improved Wilson quarks

We apply chiral perturbation theory to the pseudoscalar meson mass and decay constant data obtained in the PACS-CS Project toward 2+1 flavor lattice QCD simulations with the O(a)-improved Wilson quarks. We examine the existence of chiral logarithms in the quark mass range from m_{ud}=47 MeV down to 6 MeV on a (2.8 fm)^3 box with the lattice spacing a=0.09 fm. Several low energy constants are determined. We also discuss the magnitude of finite size effects based on chiral perturbation theory.

Lattice QCD Calculation of the $ρ$ Meson Decay Width

We present a lattice QCD calculation of the $ρ$ meson decay width via the $P$-wave scattering phase shift for the I=1 two-pion system. Our calculation uses full QCD gauge configurations for $N_f=2$ flavors generated using a renormalization group improved gauge action and an improved Wilson fermion action on a $12^3\times24$ lattice at $m_π/m_ρ=0.41$ and the lattice spacing $1/a=0.92 {\rm GeV}$. The phase shift calculated with the use of the finite size formula for the two-pion system in the moving frame shows a behavior consistent with the existence of a resonance at a mass close to the vector meson mass obtained in spectroscopy. The decay width estimated from the phase shift is consistent with the experiment, when the quark mass is scaled to the realistic value.

2+1 flavor light hadron spectrum and quark masses with the O(a) improved Wilson-clover quark formalism

We present a summary of results of the joint CP-PACS and JLQCD project toward a 2+1 flavor full QCD simulation with the O(a)-improved Wilson quark formalism and the Iwasaki gauge action. Configurations were generated during 2002-2005 at three lattice spacings, a~0.076, 0.100 and 0.122 fm, keeping the physical volume constant at (2.0fm)^3. Up and down quark masses are taken in the range m_{PS}/m_V~0.6-0.78. We have completed the analysis for the light meson spectrum and quark masses in the continuum limit using the full configuration set. The predicted meson masses reproduce experimental values in the continuum limit at a 1% level. The average up and down, and strange quark masses turn out to be m_{ud}^{\bar{MS}}(μ=2 GeV)=3.50(14)({}^{+26}_{-15}) MeV and m_s^{\bar{MS}}(μ=2 GeV)=91.8(3.9)({}^{+6.8}_{-4.1}) MeV. We discuss our future strategy toward definitive results on hadron spectroscopy with the Wilson-clover formalism.

Neutron electric dipole moment with external electric field method in lattice QCD

We discuss a possibility that the Neutron Electric Dipole Moment (NEDM) can be calculated in lattice QCD simulations in the presence of the CP violating $θ$ term. In this paper we measure the energy difference between spin-up and spin-down states of the neutron in the presence of an uniform and static external electric field. We first test this method in quenched QCD with the RG improved gauge action on a $16^3\times 32$ lattice at $a^{-1}\simeq$ 2 GeV, employing two different lattice fermion formulations, the domain-wall fermion and the clover fermion for quarks, at relatively heavy quark mass $(m_{PS}/m_V \simeq 0.85)$. We obtain non-zero values of NEDM from calculations with both fermion formulations. We next consider some systematic uncertainties of our method for NEDM, using $24^3\times 32$ lattice at the same lattice spacing only with the clover fermion. We finally investigate the quark mass dependence of NEDM and observe a non-vanishing behavior of NEDM toward the chiral limit. We interpret this behavior as a manifestation of the pathology in the quenched approximation.

First Nonperturbative Test of a Relativistic Heavy Quark Action in Quenched Lattice QCD

We perform a numerical test of a relativistic heavy quark(RHQ) action, recently proposed by Tsukuba group, in quenched lattice QCD at $a\simeq 0.1$ fm. With the use of the improvement parameters previously determined at one-loop level for the RHQ action, we investigate a restoration of rotational symmetry for heavy-heavy and heavy-light meson systems around the charm quark mass. We focused on two quantities, the meson dispersion relation and the pseudo-scalar meson decay constants. It is shown that the RHQ action significantly reduces the discretization errors due to the charm quark mass. We also calculate the S-state hyperfine splittings for the charmonium and charmed-strange mesons and the $D_s$ meson decay constant. The remaining discretization errors in the physical quantities are discussed.

Kaon $B$-parameters for Generic $ΔS=2$ Four-Quark Operators in Quenched Domain Wall QCD

We present a study of $B$-parameters for generic $ΔS=2$ four-quark operators in domain wall QCD. Our calculation covers all the $B$-parameters required to study the neutral kaon mixing in the standard model (SM) and beyond it. We evaluate one-loop renormalization factors of the operators employing the plaquette and Iwasaki gauge actions. Numerical simulations are carried out in quenched QCD with both gauge actions on $16^3\times 32\times 16$ and $24^3\times 32\times 16$ at the lattice spacing $1/a\approx 2$GeV. We investigate the relative magnitudes of the non-SM $B$-parameters to the SM one, which are compared with the previous results obtained with the overlap and the clover quark actions.

An application of the UV-filtering preconditioner to the Polynomial Hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm

We apply the UV-filtering preconditioner, previously used to improve the Multi-Boson algorithm, to the Polynomial Hybrid Monte Carlo (UV-PHMC) algorithm. The performance test for the algorithm is given for the plaquette gauge action and the $O(a)$-improved Wilson action at $β=5.2, c_{\mathrm{sw}}=2.02, M_π/M_ρ\sim 0.8$ and 0.7 on a $16^3\times 48$ lattice. We find that the UV-filtering reduces the magnitude of the molecular dynamics force from the pseudo fermion by a factor 3 by tuning the UV-filter parameter. Combining with the multi-time scale molecular dynamics integrator we achieve a factor 2 improvement.

2+1 Flavor Lattice QCD with Luescher's Domain-Decomposed HMC Algorithm

We report on a study of 2+1 flavor lattice QCD with the $O(a)$-improved Wilson quarks on a $16^3\times 32$ lattice at the lattice spacing $1/a\approx 2$GeV employing Luescher's domain-decomposed HMC(LDDHMC) algorithm. This is dedicated to a preliminary study for the PACS-CS project which plans to complete the Wilson-clover $N_f=2+1$ program lowering the up-down quark masses close to the physical values as much as possible. We focus on three issues: (i) how light quark masses we can reach with LDDHMC, (ii) efficiency of the algorithm compared with the conventional HMC, (iii) parameter choice for the production runs on PACS-CS.

$ρ$ meson decay from the lattice

We present preliminary results on the $ρ$ meson decay width estimated from the scattering phase shift of the I=1 two-pion system. The phase shift is calculated by the finite size formula for non-zero total momentum frame (the moving frame) derived by Rummukainen and Gottlieb, using the $N_f=2$ improved Wilson fermion action at $m_π/m_ρ=0.41$ and $L=2.53 {\rm fm}$.
