Derivative sources in lattice spectroscopy of excited light-quark mesons

Abstract

We construct efficient interpolating fields for lattice spectroscopy of mesons by applying covariant derivatives on Jacobi smeared quark sources. These interpolators are tested in a quenched calculation of excited mesons based on the variational method. We present results for pseudoscalar, scalar, vector and pseudovector mesons.
