Direct determination of strange and light quark condensates from full lattice QCD
C. T. H. Davies, C. McNeile, A. Bazavov +4
We determine the strange and light quark condensates in full lattice QCD for the first time. This is done by direct calculation of the expectation value of the trace of the quark p…
Electromagnetic contributions to pseudoscalar masses
S. Basak, A. Bazavov, C. Bernard +16
We report on the calculation by the MILC Collaboration of the electromagnetic effects on kaon and pion masses. These masses are computed in QCD with dynamical (asqtad staggered) qu…
Direct determination of the strange and light quark condensates from full lattice QCD
C. McNeile, A. Bazavov, C. T. H. Davies +4
We determine the strange quark condensate from lattice QCD for the first time and compare its value to that of the light quark and chiral condensates. The results come from a direc…
Kaon semileptonic decay form factors with HISQ valence quarks
E. Gamiz, J. A. Bailey, A. Bazavov +22
We report on the status of our kaon semileptonic form factor calculations using the highly-improved staggered quark (HISQ) formulation to simulate the valence fermions. We present…
Freeze-out Conditions in Heavy Ion Collisions from QCD Thermodynamics
A. Bazavov, H. -T. Ding, P. Hegde +9
We present a determination of chemical freeze-out conditions in heavy ion collisions based on ratios of cumulants of net electric charge fluctuations. These ratios can reliably be…
Semileptonic decays of K and D mesons in 2+1 flavor QCD
Jon A. Bailey, A. Bazavov, C. Bernard +17
The experimentally measured rates of the semileptonic decays K -> pi l nu and D -> K(pi) l nu can be combined with lattice calculations of the associated form factors to precisely…
