High Energy Physics - Lattice 2012-08-27 v1

Abstract

We present a report on a calculation of scattering length for I=2 SS-wave two-pion system from two-pion wave function. Calculations are made with an RG-improved action for gluons and improved Wilson action for quarks at a1=1.207(12)GeVa^{-1}=1.207(12) {\rm GeV} on 163×8016^3 \times 80, 203×8020^3 \times 80 and 243×8024^3 \times 80 lattices. We investigate the validity of necessary condition for application of L\"uscher's formula through the wave function. We find that the condition is satisfied for lattice volumes L3.92fmL\ge 3.92 {\rm fm} for the quark mass range mπ2=0.2730.736GeV2m_\pi^2 = 0.273-0.736 {\rm GeV}^2. We also find that the scattering length can be extracted with a smaller statistical error from the wave function than with a time correlation function used in previous studies.
