Non-perturbative determination of the axial current normalization constant in O(a) improved lattice QCD

چکیده
A finite-size technique is employed to compute the normalization constant ZA of the isovector axial current in lattice QCD. The calculation is carried out in the quenched approximation for values of the bare gauge coupling g0 ranging from 0 to 1. In the lattice action and the lattice expression for the axial current we include the counterterms required for O(a) improvement, with non-perturbatively determined coefficients. With little additional work the normalization constant ZV of the improved isospin current is also obtained.

Restoring chiral symmetry to O(a2) for dynamical Wilson fermions
We present results for the non–perturbative determination of the improvement and renormalization factors of the isovector axial current for lattice QCD with two flavors of dynamical Wilson quarks. The improvement and normalization conditions are formulated in terms of matrix elements of the PCAC relation in the Schrödinger functional setup and results are given in the form of interpolating form...
متن کاملO(a) Improved Lattice Qcd *
We review the O(a) improvement of lattice QCD with special emphasis on the motivation for performing the improvement programme non-perturbatively and the general concepts of on-shell improvement. The present status of the calculations of various improvement coefficients (perturbative and non-perturbative) is reviewed, as well as the computation of the isospin current normalization constants ZA ...
متن کاملNon–perturbative Renormalization of the Axial Current with Improved Wilson Quarks *
We present a new normalization condition for the axial current, which is derived from the PCAC relation with non–vanishing mass. Using this condition reduces the O(r0m) corrections to the axial current normalization constant ZA for an easier chiral extrapolation in the cases, where simulations at zero quark–mass are not possible. The method described here also serves as a preparation for a dete...

Recent work by the ALPHA collaboration has focused on non-perturbative renormalization and on-shell O(a) improvement of lattice QCD with Wilson quarks [1–7]. Various improvement coefficients could be determined as functions of the bare coupling g0, including the coefficient of the Sheikholeslami-Wohlert term in the lattice action [8]. While a non-perturbative determination of the improvement co...
متن کاملAnalysis of the Axial Anomaly on the Lattice with O(a)-improved Wilson Action
Flavor singlet and non-singlet axial Ward identities are investigated using the Wilson formulation of lattice QCD with Clover O(a)-improvement, which breaks explicitly chiral symmetry. The matching at one-loop order of all the relevant renormalization constants with the continuum MS scheme is presented. Our calculations include: 1) the contributions arising from the Clover term of the action; 2...
