Dilute gases of 2-component fermions are of great interest in atomic and nuclear physics. When interactions are strong enough so that a bound state is at threshold, universal behavior is expected. Lattice field theory provides a first…
A serious difficulty in conventional lattice field theory calculations is the coupling between the chiral and continuum limits. With both staggered and Wilson fermions, the chiral limit cannot be realized without first taking the limit of…
Quantum chromodynamics (QCD) at sufficiently high density is expected to undergo a chiral phase transition. Understanding such a transition is of particular importance for neutron star or quark star physics. In Lagrangian SU(3) lattice…
