Charm physics with highly improved staggered quarks
C. T. H. Davies, E. Follana, K. Hornbostel +5
We use a relativistic highly improved staggered quark action to discretize charm quarks on the lattice. We calculate the masses and the dispersion relation for heavy-heavy and heav…

Highly Improved Staggered Quarks on the Lattice, with Applications to Charm Physics
E. Follana, Q. Mason, C. Davies +5
We use perturbative Symanzik improvement to create a new staggered-quark action (HISQ) that has greatly reduced one-loop taste-exchange errors, no tree-level order a^2 errors, and…
