We present first results for masses of spin-3/2 baryons in lattice QCD, using a novel fat-link clover fermion action in which only the irrelevant operators are constructed using fat links. In the isospin-1/2 sector, we observe, after…
Low-lying $\Lambda$ baryons with spin 1/2 are analyzed in full (unquenched) lattice QCD. We construct $2 \times 2$ cross correlators from flavor SU(3) "octet" and "singlet" baryon operators, and diagonalize them so as to extract information…
Calculations of hadron masses are done in quenched approximation using gauge field and fermion actions which are both corrected for discretization errors to $O(a^2)$ at the classical level and which contain tadpole improvement factors. The…
In this paper we determine the masses of $I(J^P)=0\left(3/2^+\right)$ and $0\left(3/2^-\right)$ $\Omega$-baryon ground states using lattice QCD. We utilise Wilson-clover ensembles with $2+1$ dynamical quark flavours generated by the CLS…
The negative-parity ground state of the \Lambda{} baryon lies surprisingly low in mass. At 1405.1 MeV, it lies lower than the negative-parity ground state nucleon, even though it has a valence strange quark. Using the PACS-CS (2+1)-flavour…

A completely non-perturbative estimate is given for the u/d and strange quark masses in quenched QCD using O(a) improved fermions and, for comparison, Wilson fermions. For improved fermions we find m_{u/d}^MSbar(\mu=2 GeV) = 4.4(2) MeV,…
