We test here our recently introduced new lattice method for the $\beta$-function defined over infinite Euclidean space-time in the continuum from scale changes generated by infinitesimal or finite steps of the renormalized gauge coupling on…
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…
The strong coupling constant alpha_s(mu_0), taken at a fixed reference scale mu_0, is the single free parameter of QCD and should be known to the highest available precision. The value of alpha_s should also be determined with good accuracy…
We determine the scale setting function and the pseudo-critical temperature on the lattice in $N_f=2$ two-color QCD using the Iwasaki gauge and Wilson fermion actions. Although two-color QCD does not correspond to the real world, it is very…
In this Letter, we provide a determination of the coupling constant in three-flavor quantum chromodynamics (QCD), $\alpha^{\overline{\mathrm{MS}}}_s(\mu)$, for $\overline{\mathrm{MS}}$ renormalization scales $\mu \in (1,\,2)$ GeV. The…
We present a new lattice study of the discrete beta function for SU(3) gauge theory with Nf=8 massless flavors of fermions in the fundamental representation. Using the gradient flow running coupling, and comparing two different nHYP-smeared…
We present the first continuum extrapolation of the hyperon octet axial couplings ($g_{\Sigma \Sigma}$ and $g_{\Xi \Xi}$) from $N_f=2+1+1$ lattice QCD. These couplings are important parameters in the low-energy effective field theory…
We study the lattice spacing dependence, or scaling, of physical quantities using the highly improved staggered quark (HISQ) action introduced by the HPQCD/UKQCD collaboration, comparing our results to similar simulations with the asqtad…
We present preliminary results of the running of the coupling in SU(2) gauge theory with 6 massless fundamental representation fermion flavors. We measure the coupling using the gradient flow method with Schr\"odinger functional boundary…
We present state-of-the-art results from a lattice QCD calculation of the nucleon axial coupling, $g_A$, using M\"obius Domain-Wall fermions solved on the dynamical $N_f = 2 + 1 + 1$ HISQ ensembles after they are smeared using the…
We study the running of the coupling in SU(2) gauge theory with 8 massless fundamental representation fermion flavours, using the gradient flow method with the Schr\"odinger functional boundary conditions. Gradient flow allows us to measure…
We present a determination of the QCD parameter Lambda in the quenched approximation (n_f=0) and for two flavours (n_f=2) of light dynamical quarks. The calculations are performed on the lattice using O(a) improved Wilson fermions and…
We present results for the static energy in ($2+1+1$)-flavor QCD over a wide range of lattice spacings and several quark masses, including the physical quark mass, with ensembles of lattice-gauge-field configurations made available by the…
The gradient flow is a valuable tool for the lattice community, with applications from scale-setting to implementing chiral fermions. Here I focus on the gradient flow as a means to suppress power-divergent mixing. Power-divergent mixing…
We present a measurement of the running coupling in SU(2) with two adjoint fermions in the Yang-Mills gradient flow scheme. The simulations are performed with Schr\"odinger Functional boundary conditions using an improved HEX-smeared Wilson…
We present a lattice determination of the heavy-quark diffusion coefficient in (2+1)-flavor QCD with almost physical quark masses. The momentum and spatial diffusion coefficients are extracted for a wide temperature range, from $T=163$ MeV…
We report on recent progress by the HotQCD collaboration in studying the trace anomaly at non-zero temperature in 2+1 flavor QCD on lattices with the temporal extent N_tau=4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 using the highly improved staggered quark (HISQ)…
The precise value of the strong coupling $\alpha_s(m_{Z})$ at the $Z$-boson mass $m_{Z}$ is essential for high-energy phenomenology and precision tests of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). We present the status of a program targeting a $\sim…
In lattice QCD with Wilson-type quarks, the chiral symmetry is explicitly broken by the Wilson term on finite lattices. Though the symmetry is guaranteed to recover in the continuum limit, a series of non-trivial procedures are required to…
We use lattice QCD simulations, with MILC gluon configurations and HISQ c-quark propagators, to make very precise determinations of moments of charm-quark pseudoscalar, vector and axial-vector correlators. These moments are combined with…
