Charm quark mass and D-meson decay constants from two-flavour lattice QCD

Jochen Heitger, Georg M. von Hippel, Stefan Schaefer +1

We present a computation of the charm quark's mass and the leptonic D-meson decay constants f_D and f_{D_s} in two-flavour lattice QCD with non-perturbatively O(a) improved Wilson…

The strange quark mass and Lambda parameter of two flavor QCD

Patrick Fritzsch, Francesco Knechtli, Björn Leder +4

We complete the non-perturbative calculations of the strange quark mass and the Lambda parameter in two flavor QCD by the ALPHA collaboration. The missing lattice scale is determin…

Strange quark mass and Lambda parameter by the ALPHA collaboration

Marina Marinkovic, Stefan Schaefer, Rainer Sommer +1

We determine f_K for lattice QCD in the two flavor approximation with non-perturbatively improved Wilson fermions. The result is used to set the scale for dimensionful quantities i…

Autocorrelations in Hybrid Monte Carlo Simulations

Stefan Schaefer, Francesco Virotta

Simulations of QCD suffer from severe critical slowing down towards the continuum limit. This problem is known to be prominent in the topological charge, however, all observables a…

Critical slowing down and error analysis in lattice QCD simulations

Stefan Schaefer, Rainer Sommer, Francesco Virotta

We study the critical slowing down towards the continuum limit of lattice QCD simulations with Hybrid Monte Carlo type algorithms. In particular for the squared topological charge…

Investigating the critical slowing down of QCD simulations

Stefan Schaefer, Rainer Sommer, Francesco Virotta

Simulations of QCD are known to suffer from serious critical slowing down towards the continuum limit. This is particularly prominent in the topological charge. We investigate the…
