Parallel tempering and decorrelation of topological charge in full QCD

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The improvement of simulations of QCD with dynamical Wilson fermions by combining the Hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm with parallel tempering is studied on 10410^4 and 12412^4 lattices. As an indicator for decorrelation the topological charge is used.
