Systematics of Staggered Fermion Spectral Properties and Topology
Kit Yan Wong, R. M. Woloshyn
The spectral properties of a variety of improved staggered operators are studied in quenched QCD. The systematic dependence of the infrared eigenvalue spectrum on i) improvement in…

Static potential and local color fields in unquenched lattice QCD
Howard D. Trottier, Kit Yan Wong
String breaking by dynamical quarks in three-dimensional lattice QCD is analyzed through measurements of the potential and the local color-electric field strength generated by a st…

Topology and Staggered Fermion Action Improvement
Kit Yan Wong, R. M. Woloshyn
It is conventional wisdom that staggered fermions do not feel gauge field topology. However, the response of staggered fermion eigenmodes to the topology of the gauge field can dep…
