Abstract

We measure the topological charge of the gauge configurations generated by lattice simulations of 2 flavors QCD on a 163×32 16^3 \times 32 lattice, with Optimal Domain-Wall Fermion (ODWF) at Ns=16 N_s = 16 and plaquette gauge action at β=5.90 \beta = 5.90 . Using the Adaptive Thick-Restart Lanczos algorithm, we project the low-lying modes of the 4D effective Dirac operator of ODWF, and obtain the topological charge and topological susceptibility. Our result of topological susceptibility agrees with the sea-quark mass dependence predicted by the chiral perturbation theory, and provides a determination of the chiral condensate.
