Meson and baryon masses with low mode averaging
arXiv:1011.1353
Abstract
We describe and test a method known in the literature as low mode averaging to improve Euclidean two-point functions in lattice QCD using the low-lying eigenmodes of the Wilson-Dirac operator D. The contribution from the low modes is averaged over all positions of the quark sources while the contribution from high modes is calculated in the traditional way using one source point per lattice. We apply this method to different baryon and meson two-point functions and we compare the improvements using the eigenmodes of the non-hermitian operator D and the eigenmodes of the hermitian operator Q=gamma5 D. The convergence strongly depends on the parity of the states.
