Abstract

We perform hybrid Monte Carlo simulation of (2+1+1)-flavors lattice QCD with the optimal domain-wall fermion (which has the effective 4D Dirac operator exactly equal to the Zolotarev optimal rational approximation of the overlap Dirac operator). The gauge ensemble is generated on the lattice with the extent in the fifth dimension, and with the plaquette gauge action at . The lattice spacing ( fm) is determined by the Wilson flow, using the value fm obtained by the MILC Collaboration for the -flavors QCD. The masses of and quarks are fixed by the masses of the vector mesons and respectively; while the mass of the quarks is heavier than their physical values, with the unitary pion mass MeV (and ). We compute the point-to-point quark propagators, and measure the time-correlation functions of meson and baryon interpolators. Our results of the mass spectra of the lowest-lying hadrons containing and quarks are in good agreement with the high energy experimental values, together with the predictions of the charmed baryons which have not been observed in experiments.
