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.

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})$.

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.

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.
