We calculate the up-, down-, strange-, charm-, and bottom-quark masses using the MILC highly improved staggered-quark ensembles with four flavors of dynamical quarks. We use ensembles at six lattice spacings ranging from $a\approx0.15$~fm…

Measurements of anisotropic flow at low (p_T < 1.5 GeV/c) and intermediate (1.5 < p_T < 5 GeV/c) transverse momentum from the STAR collaboration are reviewed. While at low p_T an ordering of elliptic flow strength with particle mass is…

We propose a new method to determine quark masses using ratios of the vacuum-expectation values (VEVs) of flowed quark bilinear operators. They can be expressed as functions of the flow time $t$ and the ${\overline {\rm MS}}$ quark mass…

We compare lattice scales determined from the vector meson mass and the Wilson flow scale w_0 in QCD with two-flavours of rooted naive staggered fermions over a wide range of lattice spacing and quark mass. We find that the distributions of…

We present a new prescription for analysing cosmological perturbations in a more-general class of scalar-field dark-energy models where the energy-momentum tensor has an imperfect-fluid form. This class includes Brans-Dicke models, f(R)…

We study the pion spectrum (and in particular taste-symmetry breaking within it) using HYP-smeared valence staggered fermions on the coarse and fine MILC lattices (which have asqtad staggered sea quarks). We focus on the dependence on…

We calculate pseudoscalar masses on gauge configurations containing the effects of 2+1 flavors of dynamical asqtad quarks and quenched electromagnetism. The lattice spacings vary from 0.12 to 0.06 fm. The masses are fit with staggered…

We introduce a hadronic scale $R_0$ through the force $F(r)$ between static quarks at intermediate distances $r$. The definition $F(R_0)R_0^2=1.65$ amounts to $R_0 \simeq 0.5$~fm in phenomenological potential models. Since $R_0$ is well…

We propose a scenario in which the Planck scale is dynamically linked to the electroweak scale induced by top condensation. The standard model field content, without the Higgs, is promoted to a 5D warped background. There is also an…

A Markov chain update scheme using a machine-learned flow-based generative model is proposed for Monte Carlo sampling in lattice field theories. The generative model may be optimized (trained) to produce samples from a distribution…

The $I=2$ $\pi\pi$ elastic $s$-wave scattering phase shift is measured by lattice QCD with $N_f=3$ flavors of the Asqtad-improved staggered fermions. The lattice-calculated energy-eigenvalues of $\pi\pi$ systems at one center of mass frame…

Quantum nanosystems such as graphene nanoribbons or superconducting nanoparticles are studied via a multiscale approach. Long space-time dynamics is derived using a perturbation expansion in the ratio of the nearest-neighbor distance to a…

Scalar mixing fronts develop at the interface of agitated fluids of different solute concentrations. In such fronts, scalar fluctuations form at both microscopic and macroscopic scales, due to stretching-enhanced molecular diffusion and…

We compute the topological charge and its susceptibility in finite temperature (2+1)-flavor QCD on the lattice applying a gradient flow method. With the Iwasaki gauge action and nonperturbatively $O(a)$-improved Wilson quarks, we perform…

We present a new lattice QCD analysis of heavy-quark pseudoscalar-pseudoscalar correlators, using gluon configurations from the MILC collaboration that include vacuum polarization from $u$, $d$, $s$ and $c$~quarks($n_f=4$). We extract new…

Scaling behavior is analyzed for the two-flavor QCD lattice gauge theory chiral transition. Leading scaling behavior and correction to leading scaling from lattice spacing effects are examined for the quark condensate. Scaling predictions…

We discuss the current status of our calculation of the physics of pi and K mesons using three dynamical flavors of improved staggered quarks. This year, we have a new ensemble with a lattice spacing of 0.06 fm and a light sea mass of 0.2…

We analyze the hierarchical structure in the Rosette Molecular Cloud (RMC) using $^{13}$CO J=1-0 data from the Milky Way Imaging Scroll Painting (MWISP) survey with a non-binary Dendrogram algorithm that allows multiple branches to emerge…

Following a recent paper by Fodor et al. (arXiv:1406.0827), we reexamine several types of tree-level improvements on the flow action with various gauge actions in order to reduce the lattice discretization errors in the Yang-Mills gradient…

The $I=1$ $p$-wave and $I=2$ $s$-wave elastic $\pi$-$\pi$ scattering amplitudes are calculated from a first-principles lattice QCD simulation using a single ensemble of gauge field configurations with $N_{\mathrm{f}} = 2+1$ dynamical…
