When aiming at the percent precision in hadronic quantities calculated by means of lattice simulations, isospin breaking effects become relevant. These are of two kinds: up/down mass splitting and electromagnetic corrections. In order to…
We obtain estimates of several hadron mass ratios, for Wilson quarks in the valence (quenched) approximation, extrapolated to physical quark mass, infinite volume and zero lattice spacing.
Spatially non-local matrix elements are useful lattice-QCD observables in a variety of contexts, for example in determining hadron structure. To quote credible estimates of the systematic uncertainties in these calculations, one must…
