We extend the study of the light hadron spectrum and the quark mass in two-flavor QCD to smaller sea quark mass, corresponding to mPS/mV=0.60–0.35. Numerical simulations are carried out using the RG-improved gauge action and the meanfield-improved clover quark action at beta=1.8 (a=0.2 fm from rho meson mass). We observe that the light hadron spectrum for small sea quark mass does not follow the expectation from chiral extrapolations with quadratic functions made from the region of mPS/mV=0.80–0.55. Whereas fits with either polynomial or continuum chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) fail, the Wilson ChPT (WChPT) that includes a2 effects associated with explicit chiral symmetry breaking successfully fits the whole data: In particular, WChPT correctly predicts the light quark mass spectrum from simulations for medium heavy quark mass, such as mPS/mV>~0.5. Reanalyzing the previous data with the use of WChPT, we find the mean up and down quark mass being smaller than the previous result from quadratic chiral extrapolation by approximately 10%, mudMS-bar(µ=2 GeV)=3.11(17) [MeV] in the continuum limit.

We report on our study of two-flavor full QCD on anisotropic lattices using O(a)-improved Wilson quarks coupled with a renormalization-group-improved glue. The bare gauge and quark anisotropies corresponding to the renormalized anisotropy ξ=as/at=2 are determined as functions of β and κ, which cover the region of spatial lattice spacings as≈0.28–0.16 fm and mPS/mV≈0.6–0.9. The calibrations of the bare anisotropies are performed with the Wilson loop and the meson dispersion relation at four lattice cutoffs and 5–6 quark masses. Using the calibration results we calculate the meson mass spectrum and the Sommer scale r0. We confirm that the values of r0 calculated for the calibration using pseudoscalar and vector meson energy momentum dispersion relations coincide in the continuum limit within errors. This work serves to lay the groundwork for studies of heavy quark systems and the thermodynamics of QCD including the extraction of the equation of state in the continuum limit using Wilson-type quark actions.

Finite temperature SU(3) gauge theory is studied on anisotropic lattices using the standard plaquette gauge action. The equation of state is calculated on 163×8, 203×10, and 243×12 lattices with the anisotropy ξ≡as/at=2, where as and at are the spatial and temporal lattice spacings. Unlike the case of the isotropic lattice on which Nt=4 data deviate significantly from the leading scaling behavior, the pressure and energy density on an anisotropic lattice are found to satisfy well the leading 1/Nt2 scaling from our coarsest lattice Nt/ξ=4. With three data points at Nt/ξ=4, 5 and 6, we perform a well controlled continuum extrapolation of the equation of state. Our results in the continuum limit agree with a previous result from isotropic lattices using the same action, but have smaller and more reliable errors.
