The parity partner of the nucleon in quenched QCD with domain wall fermions
نویسنده
چکیده
We present preliminary results for the mass spectrum of the nucleon and its low-lying excited states from quenched lattice QCD using the domain wall fermion method which preserves the chiral symmetry at finite lattice cutoff. Definite mass splitting is observed between the nucleon and its parity partner. This splitting grows with decreasing valence quark mass. We also present preliminary data regarding the first positive-parity excited state.

Nucleon matrix elements with domain wall fermions
The structure of the nucleon is one of the fundamental problems that lattice QCD can address. In the last few years, substantial efforts have been made by several groups [1,2,3,4] in calculating the non-perturbative matrix elements relevant to nucleon structure. Up to now only Wilson fermions, improved and unimproved, have been used in both the quenched approximation and in full QCD. In this re...
متن کاملN ∗ Spectrum in Lattice QCD †
We investigate the mass of the parity partner N(1/2) of the nucleon N(1/2), in lattice QCD using a new lattice discretization scheme for fermions, domain wall fermions (DWF). DWF possess exact chiral symmetry and flavor symmetry, both of which are required for this problem, even at finite lattice spacing. Our calculation reproduces the large mass splitting between those two states, in good agre...
متن کاملA lattice study of the nucleon excited states with domain wall fermions
We present results of our numerical calculation of the mass spectrum for isospin one-half and spin one-half baryons, i.e. the ground and excited states of the nucleon, in quenched lattice QCD. We use a new lattice discretization scheme for fermions, domain wall fermions, which possess almost exact chiral symmetry at non-zero lattice spacing. We make a systematic investigation of the negative-pa...
متن کاملNucleon axial charge and structure functions with domain wall fermions
Domain wall fermions (DWF) [1] have been successfully used by the RBC Collaboration for several applications [2]. In the baryon sector we had reported that DWF with Wilson gauge action in the quenched approximation can reproduce the first negative-parity excited state of nucleon [3] which defied theoretical attempts for a long time. Here we report the current status of our calculations on the n...
متن کاملNucleon axial charge from quenched lattice QCD with domain wall fermions
Abstract We present a quenched lattice calculation of the nucleon isovector vector and axial-vector charges g V and g A . The chiral symmetry of domain wall fermions makes the calculation of the nucleon axial charge particularly easy since the Ward-Takahashi identity requires the vector and axialvector currents to have the same renormalization, up to lattice spacing errors of order O(a2). The D...
