We present estimates of the masses of light quarks using lattice data. Our main results are based on a global analysis of all the published data for Wilson, Sheikholeslami-Wohlert (clover), and staggered fermions, both in the quenched…
Accurately calculating the mass of flavor-singlet meson states from numerical lattice simulations is an important milestone for lattice QCD. Careful measurement of the full pseudoscalar flavor-singlet propagator is also a crucial step in…
Calculation of the eta-prime meson mass is a notoriously difficult problem, as it requires evaluation of the disconnected diagram which is costly and noisy. In this work, we use a gluonic operator to extract the eta-prime state after…
We show that it is necessary to go beyond the BCS (rainbow-ladder) approximation to split the $\eta$ and $\eta'$ masses from the $\pi$ and K masses. We determine the self-consistent set of one-quark-loop diagrams both for the…
I present a simple discussion of the masses and mixings of the light pseudoscalar and vector mesons based on a ``$q\bar{q}$'' description of the effective field theory. The analysis includes $\eta'$(958) from the beginning, and is largely…

Using conventional constituent-quark model, $I=1/2$ scalar $\kappa$, vector $K^\ast(892)$, and axial vector $K_1$ mesons are studied in the asqtad-improved staggered fermion with the wall-source and point-sink interpolators. The mass ratio…

We study the light scalar mesons a_0(980) and kappa using N_f = 2+1+1 flavor lattice QCD. In order to probe the internal structure of these scalar mesons, and in particular to identify, whether a sizeable tetraquark component is present, we…
