We present a study for the pion decay constant fπ in the quenched approximation to lattice QCD with the Kogut-Susskind (KS) quark action, with the emphasis given to the renormalization problems. Numerical simulations are carried out at the couplings β=6.0 and 6.2 on 323×64 and 483×64 lattices, respectively. The pion decay constant is evaluated for all KS flavors via gauge invariant and noninvariant axial vector currents with the renormalization constants calculated by both the nonperturbative method and perturbation theory. We obtain fπ=89(6) MeV in the continuum limit as the best value using the partially conserved axial vector current, which requires no renormalization. From a study for the other KS flavors we find that the results obtained with the nonperturbative renormalization constants are well convergent among the KS flavors in the continuum limit, confirming restoration of SU(4)A, flavor symmetry, while perturbative renormalization still leaves an apparent flavor breaking effect even in the continuum limit.

We present a model-independent calculation of hadron matrix elements for all dimension-6 operators associated with baryon number violating processes using lattice QCD. The calculation is performed with the Wilson quark action in the quenched approximation at β=6/g2=6.0 on a 282×48×80 lattice. Our results cover all the matrix elements required to estimate the partial lifetimes of (proton,neutron)→(π,K,η)+(ν̅ ,e+,μ+) decay modes. We point out the necessity of disentangling two form factors that contribute to the matrix element; previous calculations did not make the separation, which led to an underestimate of the physical matrix elements. With a correct separation, we find that the matrix elements have values 3–5 times larger than the smallest estimates employed in phenomenological analyses of the nucleon decays, which could give strong constraints on several GUT models. We also find that the values of the matrix elements are comparable with the tree-level predictions of the chiral Lagrangian.

We present a lattice QCD calculation of the heavy quark expansion parameters µpi2 and µG2 for heavy-light mesons and heavy-light-light baryons. The calculation is carried out on a 203×48 lattice at beta=6.0 in the quenched approximation, using the lattice NRQCD action for heavy quarks. We obtain the parameters µpi2 and µG2 in two different methods: a direct calculation of the matrix elements and an indirect calculation through the mass spectrum, and confirm that both the methods give consistent results. We also discuss an application to the lifetime ratios.

We investigate the phase structure of lattice QCD for the general number of flavors in the parameter space of gauge coupling constant and quark mass, employing the one-plaquette gauge action and the standard Wilson quark action. Performing a series of simulations for the number of flavors NF = 6–360 with degenerate-mass quarks, we find that when NF>=7 there is a line of a bulk first order phase transition between the confined phase and a deconfined phase at a finite current quark mass in the strong coupling region and the intermediate coupling region. The massless quark line exists only in the deconfined phase. Based on these numerical results in the strong coupling limit and in the intermediate coupling region, we propose the following phase structure, depending on the number of flavors whose masses are less than Lambdad which is the physical scale characterizing the phase transition in the weak coupling region: When NF>=17, there is only a trivial IR fixed point and therefore the theory in the continuum limit is free. On the other hand, when 16>=NF>=7, there is a nontrivial IR fixed point and therefore the theory is nontrivial with anomalous dimensions, however, without quark confinement. Theories which satisfy both quark confinement and spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking in the continuum limit exist only for NF<=6.

We present a high statistics study of the light hadron spectrum and quark masses in QCD with two flavors of dynamical quarks. Numerical simulations are carried out using the plaquette gauge action and the O(a)-improved Wilson quark action at β=5.2, where the lattice spacing is found to be a=0.0887(11) fm from the ρ meson mass, on a 203×48 lattice. At each of five sea quark masses corresponding to mPS/mV≃0.8–0.6, we generate 12 000 trajectories using a symmetrically preconditioned Hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm. Finite spatial volume effects are investigated employing 123×48, 163×48 lattices. We also perform a set of simulations in quenched QCD with the same lattice actions at a similar lattice spacing to those for the full QCD runs. In the meson sector we find clear evidence of sea quark effects. The J parameter increases for lighter sea quark masses, and the full QCD meson masses are systematically closer to experiment than in quenched QCD. Careful finite-size studies are made to ascertain that these are not due to finite-size effects. Evidence of sea quark effects is less clear in the baryon sector due to larger finite-size effects. We also calculate light quark masses and find mudMS̅ (2 GeV)=3.223(-0.069+0.046) MeV and msMS̅ (2 GeV)=84.5(-1.7+12.0) MeV which are about 20% smaller than in quenched QCD.

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.

We explore the application of the domain wall fermion formalism of lattice QCD to calculate the K→ππ decay amplitudes in terms of the K+→π+ and K0→0 hadronic matrix elements through relations derived in chiral perturbation theory. Numerical simulations are carried out in quenched QCD using the domain-wall fermion action for quarks and a renormalization group-improved gauge action for gluons on a 163×32×16 and 243×32×16 lattice at β=2.6 corresponding to the lattice spacing 1/a≈2 GeV. Quark loop contractions which appear in Penguin diagrams are calculated by the random noise method, and the ΔI=1/2 matrix elements which require subtractions with the quark loop contractions are obtained with a statistical accuracy of about 10%. We investigate the chiral properties required of the K+→π+ matrix elements. Matching the lattice matrix elements to those in the continuum at μ=1/a using the perturbative renormalization factor to one loop order, and running to the scale μ=mc=1.3 GeV with the renormalization group for Nf=3 flavors, we calculate all the matrix elements needed for the decay amplitudes. With these matrix elements, the ΔI=3/2 decay amplitude Re A2 shows a good agreement with experiment after an extrapolation to the chiral limit. The ΔI=1/2 amplitude Re A0, on the other hand, is about 50–60 % of the experimental one even after chiral extrapolation. In view of the insufficient enhancement of the ΔI=1/2 contribution, we employ the experimental values for the real parts of the decay amplitudes in our calculation of ɛ′/ɛ. The central values of our result indicate that the ΔI=3/2 contribution is larger than the ΔI=1/2 contribution so that ɛ′/ɛ is negative and has a magnitude of order 10-4. We discuss in detail possible systematic uncertainties, which seem too large for a definite conclusion on the value of ɛ′/ɛ.

We present results for the mass of the η′ meson in the continuum limit for two-flavor lattice QCD, calculated on the CP-PACS computer, using a renormalization-group-improved gauge action, and the Sheikoleslami-Wohlert fermion action with a tadpole-improved csw. The correlation functions are measured at three values of the coupling β corresponding to the lattice spacing a≈0.22, 0.16, 0.11 fm and for four values of the quark mass parameter κ corresponding to mπ/mρ≈0.8, 0.75, 0.7, 0.6. For each (β, κ) pair, 400–800 gauge configurations are used. The two-loop diagrams are evaluated using a noisy source method. We calculate η′ propagators using both smeared and local sources, and find that excited state contaminations are much reduced by smearing. A full analysis for the smeared propagators gives mη′=0.960(87)-0.248+0.036 GeV in the continuum limit, where the second error represents the systematic uncertainty coming from varying the functional form for chiral and continuum extrapolations.

We present the details of simulations for the light hadron spectrum in quenched QCD carried out on the CP-PACS parallel computer. Simulations are made with the Wilson quark action and the plaquette gauge action on lattices of size 323×56–643×112 at four values of lattice spacings in the range a≈0.1–0.05 fm and spatial extent Lsa≈3 fm. Hadronic observables are calculated at five quark masses corresponding to mPS/mV≈0.75–0.4, assuming the u and d quarks are degenerate, but treating the s quark separately. We find that the presence of quenched chiral singularities is supported from an analysis of the pseudoscalar meson data. The physical values of hadron masses are determined using mπ, mρ, and mK (or mφ) as input to fix the physical scale of lattice spacing and the u, d, and s quark masses. After chiral and continuum extrapolations, the agreement of the calculated mass spectrum with experiment is at a 10% level. In comparison with the statistical accuracy of 1%–3% and systematic errors of at most 1.7% we have achieved, this demonstrates a failure of the quenched approximation for the hadron spectrum: the hyperfine splitting in the meson sector is too small, and in the baryon sector the octet masses and mass splitting of the decuplet are both smaller than experiment. Light quark masses are calculated using two definitions: the conventional one and the one based on the axial-vector Ward identity. The two results converge toward the continuum limit, yielding mud=4.29(14)-0.79+0.51 MeV where the first error is statistical and the second one is systematic due to chiral extrapolation. The s quark mass depends on the strange hadron mass chosen for input: ms=113.8(2.3)-2.9+5.8 MeV from mK and ms=142.3(5.8)-0+22.0 MeV from mφ, indicating again a failure of the quenched approximation. We obtain the scale of QCD, ΛMS̅ (0)=219.5(5.4) MeV with mρ used as input. An O(10%) deviation from experiment is observed in the pseudoscalar meson decay constants.

We present our results of lattice calculations of B parameters, which parametrize ΔB=2 transition amplitudes together with the leptonic decay constant. Calculations are made in the quenched approximation at β=5.7, 5.9, 6.0 and 6.1, using NRQCD action for heavy quarks and the O(a)-improved Wilson action for light quarks. The operators are perturbatively renormalized including the correction of O(αs/(aM)m) (m>~0). We examine the scaling behavior of B parameters, and discuss the systematic uncertainties based on the results with several different truncations of higher order terms in 1/M and αs expansions. We find BBd(mb)=0.84(3)(5), BBs/BBd=1.020(21)(-16+15)(-0+5) and BSs(mb)=0.85(1)(5)(-0+1) in the quenched approximation. The errors represent statistical and systematic errors as well as the uncertainty in the determination of strange quark mass.

We present a lattice QCD calculation of the scattering phase shift for the I=2 S-wave two-pion system using the finite size method proposed by Lüscher. We work in the quenched approximation employing the standard plaquette action at β=5.9 for gluons and the Wilson fermion action for quarks. The phase shift is extracted from the energy eigenvalues of the two-pion system, which are obtained by a diagonalization of the pion four-point function evaluated for a set of relative spatial momenta. In order to change the momentum of the two-pion system, calculations are carried out on 243×60, 323×60, and 483×60 lattices. The phase shift is successfully calculated over the momentum range 0<p2<0.3 GeV2.

The calculation of the I=2 pion scattering length in quenched lattice QCD is reexamined. The calculation is carried out with the Wilson fermion action employing Lüscher’s finite size scaling method at β=5.9, 6.1, and 6.3 corresponding to the range of lattice spacing a≃0.12-0.07 fm. We obtain in the continuum limit a0/mπ=-2.09(35) 1/GeV2, which is consistent with the prediction of chiral perturbation theory a0/mπ=-2.265(51)1/GeV2.

We present a polynomial hybrid Monte Carlo (PHMC) algorithm for lattice QCD with odd numbers of flavors of O(a)-improved Wilson quark action. The algorithm makes use of the non-Hermitian Chebyshev polynomial to approximate the inverse square root of the fermion matrix required for an odd number of flavors. The systematic error from the polynomial approximation is removed by a noisy Metropolis test for which a new method is developed. Investigating the property of our PHMC algorithm in the Nf=2 QCD case, we find that it is as efficient as the conventional HMC algorithm for a moderately large lattice size (163×48) with intermediate quark masses (mPS/mV∼0.7–0.8). We test our odd-flavor algorithm through extensive simulations of two-flavor QCD treated as an Nf=1+1 system, and comparing the results with those of the established algorithms for Nf=2 QCD. These tests establish that our PHMC algorithm works on a moderately large lattice size with intermediate quark masses (163×48,mPS/mV∼0.7–0.8). Finally we experiment with the (2+1)-flavor QCD simulation on small lattices (43×8 and 83×16), and confirm the agreement of our results with those obtained with the R algorithm and extrapolated to a zero molecular dynamics step size.

We present a detailed study of the charmonium spectrum using anisotropic lattice QCD. We first derive a tree-level improved clover quark action on the anisotropic lattice for arbitrary quark mass by matching the Hamiltonian on the lattice and in the continuum. The heavy quark mass dependence of the improvement coefficients, i.e., the ratio of the hopping parameters ζ=Kt/Ks and the clover coefficients cs,t, is examined at the tree level, and effects of the choice of the spatial Wilson parameter rs are discussed. We then compute the charmonium spectrum in the quenched approximation employing ξ=as/at=3 anisotropic lattices. Simulations are made with the standard anisotropic gauge action and the anisotropic clover quark action with rs=1 at four lattice spacings in the range as=0.07–0.2 fm. The clover coefficients cs,t are estimated from tree-level tadpole improvement. On the other hand, for the ratio of the hopping parameters ζ, we adopt both the tree-level tadpole-improved value and a non-perturbative one. The latter employs the condition that the speed of light calculated from the meson energy-momentum relation be unity. We calculate the spectrum of S and P states and their excitations using both the pole and kinetic masses. We find that the combination of the pole mass and the tadpole-improved value of ζ to yield the smoothest approach to the continuum limit, which we then adopt for the continuum extrapolation of the spectrum. The results largely depend on the scale input even in the continuum limit, showing a quenching effect. When the lattice spacing is determined from the 1P-1S splitting, the deviation from the experimental value is estimated to be ∼30% for the S-state hyperfine splitting and ∼20% for the P-state fine structure. Our results are consistent with previous results at ξ=2 obtained by Chen when the lattice spacing is determined from the Sommer scale r0. We also address the problem with the hyperfine splitting that different choices of the clover coefficients lead to disagreeing results in the continuum limit. Making a leading order analysis based on potential models we show that a large hyperfine splitting ∼95 MeV obtained by Klassen with a different choice of the clover coefficients is likely an overestimate.

We present results of a numerical calculation of lattice QCD with two degenerate flavors of dynamical quarks, identified with up and down quarks, and with a strange quark treated in the quenched approximation. The lattice action and simulation parameters are chosen with a view to carrying out an extrapolation to the continuum limit as well as chiral extrapolations in dynamical up and down quark masses. Gauge configurations are generated with a renormalization-group improved gauge action and a mean field improved clover quark action at three values of β=6/g2, corresponding to lattice spacings of a≈0.22, 0.16 and 0.11 fm, and four sea quark masses corresponding to mPS/mV≈0.8, 0.75, 0.7 and 0.6. The sizes of lattice are chosen to be 123×24, 163×32 and 243×48 so that the physical spatial size is kept constant at La≈2.5 fm. Hadron masses, light quark masses and meson decay constants are measured at five valence quark masses corresponding to mPS/mV≈0.8, 0.75, 0.7, 0.6 and 0.5. We also carry out complementary quenched simulations with the same improved actions. The quenched spectrum from this analysis agrees well in the continuum limit with the one of our earlier work using the standard action, quantitatively confirming the systematic deviation of the quenched spectrum from experiment. We find the two-flavor full QCD meson masses in the continuum limit to be much closer to experimental meson masses than those from quenched QCD. When using the K meson mass to fix the strange quark mass, the difference between quenched QCD and experiment of 2.6-0.9+0.3% for the K* meson mass and of 4.1-1.6+0.5% for the φ meson mass is reduced to 0.7-1.7+1.1% and 1.3-2.5+1.8% in full QCD, where the errors include estimates of systematic errors of the continuum extrapolation as well as statistical errors. Analyses of the J parameter yield a similar trend in that the quenched estimate in the continuum limit J=0.375-0.009+0.039 increases to J=0.440-0.031+0.061 in two-flavor full QCD, approaching the experimental value J≈0.48. We take these results as manifestations of sea quark effects in two-flavor full QCD. For baryon masses full QCD values for strange baryons such as Ξ and Ω are in agreement with experiment, while they differ increasingly with decreasing strange quark content, resulting in a nucleon mass higher than experiment by 10% and a Δ mass by 13%. The pattern suggests finite size effects as a possible origin for this deviation. For light quark masses in the continuum limit we obtain mudMS̅ (2 GeV)=3.44-0.22+0.14 MeV and msMS̅ (2 GeV)=88-6+4 MeV (K-input) and msMS̅ (2 GeV)=90-11+5 MeV (φ-input), which are reduced by about 25% compared to the values in quenched QCD. We also present results for decay constants where large scaling violations obstruct a continuum extrapolation. The need for a nonperturbative estimate of renormalization factors is discussed.

We present a lattice QCD calculation of B→πlν semileptonic decay form factors in the small pion recoil momentum region. The calculation is performed on a quenched 163×48 lattice at β=5.9 with the nonrelativistic QCD action including the full 1/M terms. The form factors f1(v⋅kπ) and f2(v⋅kπ) defined in the heavy quark effective theory for which the heavy quark scaling is manifest are adopted, and we find that the 1/M correction to the scaling is small for the B meson. The dependence of the form factors on the light quark mass and on the recoil energy is found to be mild, and we use a global fit of the form factors at various quark masses and recoil energies to obtain model independent results for the physical differential decay rate. We find that the B* pole contribution dominates the form factor f+(q2) for small pion recoil energy, and obtain the differential decay rate integrated over the kinematic region q2>18 GeV2 to be

We report on a calculation of BK with domain-wall fermion action in quenched QCD. Simulations are made with a renormalization group improved gauge action at β=2.6 and 2.9 corresponding to a-1≈2 and 3 GeV. Effects due to finite fifth dimensional size N5 and finite spatial size Nσ are examined in detail. Matching to the continuum operator is made perturbatively at one loop order. We obtain BK(μ=2 GeV)=0.5746(61)(191), where the first error is statistical and the second error represents an estimate of scaling violation and O(α2) errors in the renormalization factor added in quadrature, as an estimate of the continuum value in the modified minimal subtraction (MS̅ ) scheme with naive dimensional regularization. This value is consistent, albeit somewhat small, with BK(μ=2 GeV)=0.628(42) obtained by the JLQCD Collaboration using the Kogut-Susskind quark action. Results for light quark masses are also reported.

We apply the maximum entropy method to extract the spectral functions for pseudoscalar and vector mesons from hadron correlators previously calculated at four different lattice spacings in quenched QCD with the Wilson quark action. We determine masses and decay constants for the ground and excited states of the pseudoscalar and vector channels from the position and area of peaks in the spectral functions. We obtain the results mπ1=660(590) MeV and mρ1=1540(570) MeV for the first excited state masses, in the continuum limit of quenched QCD. We also find unphysical states that have an infinite mass in the continuum limit, and argue that they are bound states of two doublers of the Wilson quark action. If the interpretation is correct, this is the first time that the state of doublers has been identified in lattice QCD numerical simulations.

We present a study of the topological susceptibility in lattice QCD with two degenerate flavors of dynamical quarks. The topological charge is measured on gauge configurations generated with a renormalization group improved gauge action and a mean field improved clover quark action at three values of β=6/g2 with four sea quark masses at each β. The lattice spacings at these β’s are a≈0.22, 0.16 and 0.11 fm at the physical up and down quark mass, which are fixed by the physical ρ meson mass. The study is supplemented by simulations of pure SU(3) gauge theory with the same gauge action at 5 values of β with lattice spacings 0.09 fm≲a≲0.27 fm. We employ a field-theoretic definition of the topological charge together with cooling. For the topological susceptibility in the continuum limit of pure SU(3) gauge theory we obtain χt1/4=197-16+13 MeV where the error shows statistical and systematic ones added in quadrature. In full QCD χt at heavy sea quark masses is consistent with that of pure SU(3) gauge theory. A decrease of χt toward light quark masses, as predicted by the anomalous Ward-Takahashi identity for U(1) chiral symmetry, becomes clearer for smaller lattice spacings. The cross over in the behavior of χt from heavy to light sea quark masses is discussed.

We present a dynamical lattice calculation with two flavors for bottomonium states with an additional gluonic excitation. Using improved actions for the quarks and gauge fields at a lattice spacing of a≈0.1 fm, we find 10.977(61)(62) GeV for the energy of the lowest lying bb̅ g hybrid, where the first error is statistical and the second denotes the systematic uncertainty due to the determination of scale. In a parallel quenched simulation we demonstrate explicitly that vacuum polarization effects are less than 10% of the splitting with the ground state.
