Abstract

We consider the (1+1)-dimensional N=(2,2){\cal N}=(2,2) super Yang--Mills theory which is obtained by dimensionally reducing N=1{\cal N}=1 super Yang--Mills theory in four dimension to two dimensions. We do our calculations in the large-NcN_c approximation using Supersymmetric Discrete Light Cone Quantization. The objective is to calculate quantities that might be investigated by researchers using other numerical methods. We present a precision study of the low-mass spectrum and the stress-energy correlator <T++(r)T++(0)><T^{++}(r) T^{++}(0)>. We find that the mass gap of this theory closes as the numerical resolution goes to infinity and that the correlator in the intermediate rr region behaves like r4.75r^{-4.75}.
