Taste-Changing in Staggered Quarks

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2009-11-07 v1

Abstract

We present results from a systematic perturbative investigation of taste-changing in improved staggered quarks. We show one-loop taste-changing interactions can be removed perturbatively by an effective four-quark term and calculate the necessary coefficients.
