Calculations of the elastic $I=\frac{3}{2}$ nucleon-pion scattering phase shifts on two lattice QCD ensembles with $m_\pi=200\mathrm{MeV}$ and $280\mathrm{MeV}$ are presented. The ensembles both employ $N_\mathrm{f} = 2+1$ Wilson clover…
A simulation of lattice QCD at (or even below) the physical pion mass is feasible on a small lattice size of \sim 2 fm. The results are, however, subject to large finite volume effects. In order to precisely understand the chiral behavior…
Scattering phase shifts of a meson-meson system in staggered 3-dimensional lattice QED are computed. The main task of the simulation is to obtain a discrete set of two-body energy levels. These are extracted from a 4-point time correlation…
