In this work, we extend and apply effective field theory techniques to systematically understand a subset of lattice artifacts which pollute the lattice correlation functions for a few processes of physical interest. Where possible, we…
The mass spectrum of heavy quark baryons has been computed on anisotropic lattices using quenched lattice nonrelativistic QCD. The mass splittings between spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 baryons are also calculated. Results are compared to those…
Isospin-breaking corrections pose a significant challenge to lattice simulations, both because of the splitting between the up and down quark masses and, in particular, the need to include QED effects. The RC* collaboration has developed…
The mass splittings in the pseudoscalar mesons are studied by combining 2+1 flavor domain wall fermion gauge configurations, generated by the RBC/UKQCD collaborations, and quenched, non-compact, lattice QED configurations. We extract the…
We determine the leading order mesonic~($B_0$ and $F_0$) and baryonic~($m_0$, $D$ and $F$) SU(3) chiral perturbation theory low energy constants from lattice QCD. We employ gauge ensembles with $N_f=3$ (i.e., $m_u=m_d=m_s$)…
The decreasing uncertainties in theoretical predictions and experimental measurements of several hadronic observables related to weak processes, which in many cases are now smaller than $\mathrm{O}(1\%)$, require theoretical calculations to…

First-principles lattice determinations of the Standard Model expectation for the leading order hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon have become sufficiently precise that further improvement…
Baryon mass splittings are analyzed in terms of a simple model with general pairwise interactions. At present, the $\Delta$ masses are poorly known from experiments. Improvement of these data would provide an opportunity to make a…
In a recent letter, several electromagnetic mass difference formulae for baryons were presented. However, because the derivation did not include important colormagnetic terms, the mass relations do not correctly give isospin mass splittings…
The chiral Lagrangian for the Symanzik action through O(a^2) for baryons is obtained. We consider two flavor unquenched and partially quenched lattice theories, allowing for mixed actions in the latter. As an application, we calculate…
Current measurements of isospin splittings in mesons and baryons are sufficiently precise that they allow estimates of the mass difference between constituent up and down quarks. Some previous results are updated in the light of these new…
The chiral extrapolation of the nucleon mass, M_n, is investigated using data coming from 2-flavour partially-quenched lattice simulations. A large sample of lattice results from the CP-PACS Collaboration is analysed using the leading…
Antiprotonic atoms have served as a pivotal tool for investigating the properties of baryon-baryon interactions, including their spin dependence. Examining the spin-orbit splittings induced by their strong interactions also could help…
