Progress on computing the hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment with staggered fermions
Vaishakhi Moningi, Christopher Aubin, Thomas Blum +3
We give an update of our calculation of the light-quark, connected, hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment, or muon . The update inclu…
The Light Quark Connected Hadronic Vacuum Polarization Contribution to the muon anomaly via Sparsened Meson Fields
Vaishakhi Moningi, Christopher Aubin, Thomas Blum +3
We present an update on our determination of the light-quark connected contribution to the hadronic vacuum polarization (HVP) of the muon anomalous magnetic moment, , on a fin…
Non-perturbative False Vacuum Decay Using Lattice Monte Carlo in Imaginary Time
Luchang Jin, Joshua Swaim
We present a new method for calculating quantum tunneling rates using lattice Monte Carlo simulations in imaginary time. This method is designed with the goal of studying false vac…
Toward inclusive observables with staggered quarks: the smeared ~ratio
Thomas Blum, William I. Jay, Luchang Jin +2
Inclusive hadronic observables are ubiquitous in particle and nuclear physics. Computation of these observables using lattice QCD is challenging due the presence of a difficult inv…
