Nucleon Properties at Finite Lattice Spacing in Chiral Perturbation Theory
نویسندگان
چکیده
Properties of the proton and neutron are studied in partially-quenched chiral perturbation theory at finite lattice spacing. Masses, magnetic moments, the matrix elements of isovector twist-2 operators and axial-vector currents are examined at the one-loop level in a double expansion in the light-quark masses and the lattice spacing. This work will be useful in extrapolating the results of simulations using Wilson valence and sea quarks, as well as simulations using Wilson sea quarks and Ginsparg-Wilson valence quarks, to the continuum.

Some Recent Developments in Chiral Perturbation Theory∗
The first part of this talk concerns the application of chiral perturbation theory (CHPT) at unphysical quark masses. More precisely, lattice QCD (LQCD) allows one in principle to calculate hadronic matrix elements ab initio using capability computing on a discretized space-time. To connect to the real world, various extrapolations are necessary: LQCD operates at a finite volume V , at a finite...
متن کاملTopics in Effective Field Theory for Lattice QCD
Quantitatively understanding hadronic physics from first principles requires numerical solutions to QCD, known as lattice QCD, which are necessarily performed with a finite spatial extent at finite lattice spacing. Current simulations employ quark masses that are heavier than those in nature, as lighter quarks are computationally too costly, the physical systems simulated are not significantly ...
متن کاملThe nucleon mass in N f = 2 lattice QCD : finite size effects from chiral perturbation theory
In the framework of relativistic SU(2)f baryon chiral perturbation theory we calculate the volume dependence of the nucleon mass up to and including O(p4). Since the parameters in the resulting finite size formulae are fixed from the pion mass dependence of the large volume nucleon masses and from phenomenology, we obtain a parameter-free prediction of the finite size effects. We present mass d...
متن کاملLattice study on kaon nucleon scattering length in the I = 1 channel
Using the tadpole improved clover Wilson quark action on small, coarse and anisotropic lattices, KN scattering length in the I = 1 channel is calculated within quenched approximation. The results are extrapolated towards the chiral and physical kaon mass region. Finite volume and finite lattice spacing errors are also analyzed and a result in the infinite volume and continuum limit is obtained ...
