We investigate high density state of SU(2) QCD by using Lattice QCD simulation with Wilson fermions. The ratio of fermion determinants is evaluated at each step of the Metropol is link update by Woodbury formula. At $\beta=0.7$, and $\kappa…
We investigate effects resulting from the use of different discretizations for the valence and the sea quarks in lattice QCD, considering Wilson and/or Ginsparg-Wilson fermions. We assume that such effects appear through scaling violations…
We present results of a high-statistics study of scalar and pseudoscalar meson propagators in quenched QCD at two values of lattice spacing, beta = 5.7 and 5.9, with clover-improved Wilson fermions. The study of the chiral limit is…
We simulate quenched QCD with the overlap Dirac operator. We work with the Wilson gauge action at beta=6 on an 18^3x64 lattice. We calculate quark propagators for a single source point and quark mass ranging from am_q=0.03 to 0.75. We…
The flavour and glue structure of the light scalar mesons in QCD are probed by studying the couplings of the $\sigma(600)$ and $f_0(980)$ to the operators $\bar{q}q$, $\theta_\mu^\mu$ and to two photons.
Lattice QCD using fermions whose Dirac operator obeys the Ginsparg-Wilson relation, is perhaps the best known formulation of QCD with a finite cutoff. It reproduces all the low energy QCD phenomenology associated with chiral symmetry at…
Lattice calculations allow us to probe the low-lying, non-perturbative spectrum of QCD using first principles numerical methods. Here we present the low-lying spectrum in the scalar sector with vacuum quantum numbers including, in fully…
The phase diagram for the compact lattice QED with Wilson fermions is shown. We discuss different methods for the calculation of the 'pion' mass $m_{\pi}$ near the chiral transition point $\kappa_c(\beta )$.
Resonance, bound-state, and virtual-state pole positions of the $f_0(500)$ scalar meson are computed as a continuous function of pion mass in the framework of a unitarized and analytic coupled-channel model for scalar mesons, described as…
I describe some insight obtained from a lattice calculation on the possibility that the light scalar mesons are \qbar^2 q^2 states rather than \qbar q. First I review some general features of \qbar^2 q^2 states in QCD inspired quark models.…
Lattice QCD allows us to probe the low-lying hadron spectrum in finite-volume using a basis of single- and multi-hadron interpolating operators. Here we examine the effect of including tetraquark operators on the spectrum in the scalar…
We evaluate the isovector nucleon electromagnetic form factors in quenched and full QCD on the lattice using Wilson fermions. In the quenched theory we use a lattice of spatial size 3 fm at beta=6.0 enabling us to reach low momentum…
We study the possibility that the scalar mesons exist as four-quark states. The energy shift of two pseudoscalar mesons as a function of spatial lattice size makes a distinction between bound states and scattering states of four-quark…
From recent analysis of the $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitude, it has been claimed that there exists a broad and light $\sigma$ meson. However, if this meson really exists, it must also appear in other observables such as the pion scalar form…
We suggest a simple analytical description of the S-wave isoscalar $\pi\pi$ amplitude, which corresponds to a joint dressing of the bare resonance and background contributions. The amplitude describes well the experimental data on the…
We summarize the different features of the scalar mesons from QCD spectral sum rule analyses of the two- and three-point functions. The results do not favour the u-bar u + d-bar d interpretation of the broad and low mass sigma (0.6), and…
The light scalar meson sigma(600) is known to appear at low excitation energy with very large width on top of continuum states. We investigate it in the QCD sum rule as an example of resonance structures appearing above the corresponding…
Scalar mesons are a key expression of the strong physics regime of QCD and the role condensates, particularly $<q{\bar q}>$, play in breaking chiral symmetry. What new insights have been provided by recent experiments on $D, D_s$ and…
We perform the first study of treating b, c, and s quarks as Dirac fermions in lattice QCD with exact chiral symmetry. On a 32^3 60 lattice with 1/a ~ 7.68 GeV, we compute point-to-point quark propagators, and measure the time-correlation…
