چکیده

We present results for the lattice quark propagator in both Landau and Laplacian gauges using standard and improved staggered quark actions. The standard Kogut-Susskind action has errors of O(a) while the improved “Asqtad” action has O(a), O(ag) errors. This improvement is seen in the quark propagator. We demonstrate the application of tree-level corrections to these actions and see that Landau and Laplacian gauges produce very similar results.

Lattice quark propagator with staggered quarks in Landau and Laplacian gauges

We report on the lattice quark propagator using standard and improved Staggered quark actions, with the standard, Wilson gauge action. The standard Kogut-Susskind action has errors of O(a) while the “Asqtad” action has O(a), O(ag) errors. The quark propagator is interesting for studying the phenomenon of dynamical chiral symmetry breaking and as a test-bed for improvement. Gauge dependent quant...

Quark propagator from an improved staggered action in Laplacian and Landau gauges

Studies of gauge dependent quantities are afflicted with Gribov copies, but Laplacian gauge fixing provides one possible solution to this problem. We present results for the lattice quark propagator in both Landau and Laplacian gauges using standard and improved staggered quark actions. The standard Kogut-Susskind action has errors of O(a) while the improved “Asqtad” action has O(a), O(ag) erro...

Gluons, Quarks, and the Transition from Nonperturbative to Perturbative Qcd

Lattice-based investigations of two fundamental QCD quantities are described, namely the gluon and quark propagators in Landau gauge. We have studied the Landau gauge gluon propagator using a variety of lattices with spacings from a = 0.17 to 0.41 fm to explore finite volume and discretization effects. We also introduce the general method of “tree-level correction” to minimize the effect of lat...

Coupling Constant and Confinement in Minimal Coulomb and Landau Gauges

We present a numerical study of the space-space and time-time components of the gluon propagator at equal time in the minimal Coulomb gauge, and of the gluon and ghost propagators in the minimal Landau gauge. This work allows a non-perturbative evaluation of the running coupling constant and a numerical check of Gribov’s confinement scenarios for these two gauges. Our simulations are done in pu...

Laplacian gauge gluon propagator in SU „

Lattice QCD provides a well suited theoretical framework for the study of nonperturbative quantities as a function of the number of colors. Although experimentally inaccessible, QCD for Nc52 and Nc54 is interesting from the theoretical point of view. Recently SU(Nc) Yang-Mills theories were investigated for various Nc by two groups @1,2# with emphasis on the evaluation of string tensions and gl...
