f_B for Various Actions : Approaching the Continuum Limit with Dynamical Fermions
C. Bernard, S. Datta, C. DeTar +7
We present results for pseudoscalar decay constants of heavy-light mesons using both quenched and N_f = 2 dynamical fermion configurations. A variety of fermion actions is investig…
Zero Temperature String Breaking with Staggered Quarks
MILC Collaboration, C. Bernard, T. Burch +8
The separation of a heavy quark and antiquark pair leads to the formation of a tube of flux, or "string", which should break in the presence of light quark-antiquark pairs. This ex…
Quark Loop Effects with an Improved Staggered Action
MILC Collaboration, C. Bernard, T. Burch +7
We have been studying effects of dynamical quarks on various hadronic observables, using our recently formulated improvement for staggered fermions. To illustrate improvement, we s…
Prompt photons at RHIC
J. Jalilian-Marian, K. Orginos, I. Sarcevic
We calculate the inclusive cross section for prompt photon production in heavy-ion collisions at RHIC energies ( GeV and GeV) in the central rapidity r…
The static quark potential in three flavor QCD
C. Bernard, T. Burch, K. Orginos +7
We study the effects of dynamical quarks on the static quark potential at distances shorter than those where string breaking is expected. Quenched calculations and calculations wit…
