Lattice Calculation of Baryon Masses Using the Clover Fermion Action
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a calculation of the lowest-lying baryon masses in the quenched approximation to QCD. The calculations are performed using a non-perturbatively improved clover fermion action, and a splitting is found between the masses of the nucleon and its parity partner. An analysis of the mass of the first radial excitation of the nucleon finds a value considerably larger than that of the parity partner of the nucleon, and thus little evidence for the Roper resonance as a simple three-quark state.

Quenched Light Hadron Spectroscopy: Comparing the Wilson and O(a)-Improved Fermion Actions
We have studied the light hadron spectrum and decay constants for quenched QCD at β = 6.2 on a 24 × 48 lattice. We compare the results obtained using a nearest-neighbour O(a)-improved (“clover”) fermion action with those obtained using the standard Wilson fermion action on the same gauge configurations. For pseudoscalar meson masses in the range 330-800 MeV, we find no significant difference be...
متن کاملLight quark simulations with FLIC fermions
Hadron masses are calculated in quenched lattice QCD in order to probe the scaling behavior of a novel fatlink clover fermion action in which only the irrelevant operators of the fermion action are constructed using APE-smeared links. Light quark masses corresponding to an mπ/mρ ratio of 0.35 are considered to assess the exceptional configuration problem of clover-fermion actions. This Fat-Link...
متن کاملTuning improved anisotropic actions in lattice perturbation theory
We discuss the tuning of the anisotropic clover action and Symanzik-improved gauge action in lattice perturbation theory. The fermion action is constructed from stout-smeared spatial links, which complicates the calculation considerably. In addition, the full quark-mass dependence of the action parameters is included in this study. We present results for the fermion and gauge aspect ratios for ...
متن کاملFeasibility study of using the overlap - Dirac operator for hadron spectroscopy
Two critical systematic errors in the calculation of the fB decay constant from lattice QCD are the chiral extrapolations and the unquenching errors [1]. The only way to reduce these errors is to simulate QCD with lighter quark masses. Unfortunately, because of exceptional configurations, it is difficult to further reduce the masses of the light quarks in quenched simulations with the clover op...
متن کاملA High Statistics Lattice Calculation of Quark Masses with a Non-Perturbative Renormalization Procedure
We present results of a high statistics study (O(2000) configurations) of the quark masses in the MS scheme from Lattice QCD in the quenched approximation at β = 6.0, β = 6.2 and β = 6.4 using both the Wilson and the tree-level improved SW-Clover fermion action. We extract quark masses from the meson spectroscopy and from the axial Ward Identity using non-perturbative values of the renormalizat...
