Employing the maximum entropy method we extract the spectral functions from meson correlators at four lattice spacings in quenched QCD with the Wilson quark action. We confirm that the masses and decay constants, obtained from the position…
We present a new method for extracting excited states from a single two-point correlation function calculated on the lattice. Our method simply combines the correlation function evaluated at different time slices so as to ``subtract'' the…
Using the constrained curve fitting method and overlap fermions with the lowest pion mass at $180 {\rm MeV}$, we observe that the masses of the first positive and negative parity excited states of the nucleon tend to cross over as the quark…

We investigate the finite size effect on masses of excited baryons in quenched lattice QCD simulation. For this purpose, we perform numerical simulations at three different lattice sizes, La\simeq 1.6, 2.2 and 3.2 fm. The gauge…
We present a lattice QCD study of the puzzling positive-parity nucleon channel, where the Roper resonance $N^*(1440)$ resides in experiment. The study is based on an ensemble of gauge configurations with $N_f=2+1$ Wilson-clover fermions…
The present status of the Roper resonance in lattice QCD is reviewed. Some of the latest lattice results are discussed with particular emphasis on a large systematic error stemming from the finite size effect. These results suggest that the…

We examine the phase shifts and inelasticities associated with the $N^*(1440)$ Roper resonance and connect these infinite-volume observables to the finite-volume spectrum of lattice QCD using Hamiltonian effective field theory. We explore…
Two different descriptions of the existing pion-nucleon scattering data in the region of the Roper resonance are constructed. Both descriptions fit the experimental data very well. In one scenario the resonance is the result of strong…

The study of excited hadron spectra using Lattice QCD is currently evolving. An important step toward obtaining resonance parameters from Lattice QCD is the calculation of finite volume energy spectra. Somewhat more rigorous studies of…
