Various suggestions exist for incorporating the strange quark into twisted mass QCD. One option for quenched simulations is to employ two twisted doublets, (u,d) and (c,s), with separate twist angles. Working in the isospin limit,…

We present a scaling study of lattice QCD with O(a) improved Wilson fermions and a chirally twisted mass term. In order to get precise results with a moderate computational effort, we have considered a system of physical size of 0.75^3 *…
Simulations that use the clover action in quenched QCD calculations have a lower limit to the quark mass that can be reached, because of the fluctuations caused by exceptional configurations. From this low statistics study, we find that the…
