This is a brief note on 'A better conditioned Domain Wall Operator', which provides a more detailed explanation of the domain wall-to-overlap transformation with the inclusion of the alpha parameter.
Lattice simulations of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) enable one to calculate the low-energy properties of the strong interaction among quarks and gluons based on the first principle. The most time-consuming part of the numerical simulations…
A variation of the Domain Wall operator with an additional parameter alpha will be introduced. The conditioning of the new Domain Wall operator depends on alpha, whereas the corresponding 4D propagator does not. The new and the conventional…
The N to Delta transition form factors GM1, GE2 and GC2 are evaluated using dynamical MILC configurations and valence domain wall fermions at three values of quark mass corresponding to pion mass 606 MeV, 502 MeV and 364 MeV on lattices of…
We numerically investigate the transition of the static quark-antiquark string into a static-light meson-antimeson system. Improving noise reduction techniques, we are able to resolve the signature of string breaking dynamics for n_f=2…
A new class of domain wall fermions is defined that interpolates between Shamir's and Bori\c{c}i's form without increasing the number of Dirac applications per CG iteration. This class represents a full (real) M\"obius transformation of the…
We numerically investigate the transition of the static quark-antiquark string into a static-light meson-antimeson system. Improving noise reduction techniques, we are able to resolve the signature of string breaking dynamics for Nf=2…
We present a study of gauge invariant density-density correlators. Density-density correlators probe hadron wave functions and thus can be used to study hadron deformation. Their zero momentum projection requires the computation of…
We investigate topology in lattice simulations of QCD with two flavours of dynamical Wilson fermions. At various sea quark masses we find reasonable agreement between results for the topological charge from fermionic and gluonic…
We investigate the string breaking mechanism in n_f=2 QCD. We discuss the lattice techniques used and present results on energy levels and mixing angle of the static BBbar|QbarQ two-state system. The string breaking is visualized, by means…
Today's cluster computers suffer from slow I/O, which slows down I/O-intensive applications. We show that fast disk I/O can be achieved by operating a parallel file system over fast networks such as Myrinet or Gigabit Ethernet. In this…
