We compute the hadron mass spectrum, the quark masses and the meson decay constants in quenched lattice QCD with non-perturbatively $O(a)$ improved Wilson fermions. The calculations are done for two values of the coupling constant, $\beta =…

In our earlier work, the charge and matter radial distributions of heavy-light mesons were measured on a 16^3 times 24 lattice with a lattice spacing of a = 0.17 fm and a light quark mass about that of the strange quark. Several major…

As part of program to quantize superstrings in AdS_5 x S^5 background in light cone approach we find the explicit form of the corresponding Green-Schwarz action in fermionic light-cone kappa-symmetry gauge. The resulting action is quadratic…

In this work we discuss the effect of the quartic fermion self-interaction of Thirring type in QED in D=2 and D=3 dimensions. This is done through the computation of the effective action up to quadratic terms in the photon field. We analyze…

We present a new formulation of the staggered fermion on the D-dimensional lattice based on the SO(2D) Clifford algebra, which is naturally present in the action. The action of the massless staggered fermion is invariant under the discrete…

The positive-plaquette Manton action at weak coupling is a reasonable action for short-distance phenomena. We propose an iterative scheme for evolving this action into an effective action for longer distance scales. We report on the first…

We derive an O(a^4)-improved lattice version of the continuum field-strength tensor. Discretization errors are reduced via the combination of several clover terms of various sizes, complemented by tadpole improvement. The resulting improved…

The hadron mass spectrum is calculated in lattice QCD using a novel fat-link clover fermion action in which only the irrelevant operators of the fermion action are constructed using smeared links. The simulations are performed on a 16^3 X…

Exploratory studies of heavy meson semileptonic decays on coarse lattices using Symanzik improved glue, NRQCD heavy and D234 light quarks are discussed. Comparisons are made between calculations on anisotropic and isotropic lattices. We…

Recent results in light hadron spectroscopy are reviewed. Attention is given to the requirements of precision determinations in lattice gauge theory. Different methods for extracting the running coupling constant $\alpha_S$ are compared.…

QCD is investigated at finite temperature using Wilson fermions in the fixed scale approach. A 2+1 flavor stout and clover improved action is used at four lattice spacings allowing for control over discretization errors. The light quark…

A study of the chiral behavior of pseudoscalar masses and decay constants is carried out in quenched lattice QCD with Wilson fermions. Using the modified quenched approximation (MQA) to cure the exceptional configuration problem, accurate…

We present preliminary results for the spectrum and decay matrix elements for heavy-light and heavy-heavy mesons, obtained on the 64-node Meiko Computing Surface at the University of Edinburgh. Quark propagators are computed with an…

Using unimproved and non-perturbatively O(a) improved Wilson fermions, results are given for the three lowest moments of unpolarised nucleon structure functions. Renormalisation, chiral extrapolation and the continuum limit of the matrix…

We present an update of the MILC studies of the physics of light pseudoscalars using improved staggered fermions. New runs at lighter quark mass, as well as increased statistics for older sets, are enabling us to improve the results for…

The chiral Lagrangian for the Symanzik action through O(a^2) for baryons is obtained. We consider two flavor unquenched and partially quenched lattice theories, allowing for mixed actions in the latter. As an application, we calculate…

In a recent paper, Creutz has given a new action describing two species of Dirac fermions with exact chiral symmetry on the lattice. This action depends on a parameter which may be fixed at a certain value in order to get the right…

The results of a preliminary partially quenched (N_f=2) study of the light hadron spectrum, renormalization constants and light quark masses are presented. Numerical simulations are carried out with the LL-SSOR preconditioned Hybrid Monte…

We introduce a new class of actions for staggered quarks in lattice QCD which significantly reduce flavour symmetry violations in the pion mass spectrum. An action introduced by the MILC collaboration for the same purpose is seen to be a…

We report on exploratory studies of heavy-light meson semileptonic decays using Asqtad light quarks, NRQCD heavy quarks and Symanzik improved glue on coarse quenched lattices. Oscillatory contributions to three-point correlators coming from…
