Topological susceptibility and Instanton size distribution from over-improved cooling

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2009-10-28 v1

Abstract

We measure the topological susceptibility by cooling with an over-improved action. In contrast with usual cooling, large instantons survive over-improved cooling {\em indefinitely}. By varying the parameter of the over-improved cooling action, we measure the instanton size distribution.
