The Gluon Propagator without lattice Gribov copies on a finer lattice
C. Alexandrou, Ph. de Forcrand, E. Follana
We extend our study of the gluon propagator in quenched lattice QCD using the Laplacian gauge to a finer lattice. We verify the existence of a pole mass as we take the continuum li…
The Static Baryon Potential
C. Alexandrou, Ph. de Forcrand, A. Tsapalis
Using state of the art lattice techniques we investigate the static baryon potential. We employ the multi-hit procedure for the time links and a variational approach to determine t…
Testing Dimensional Reduction in SU(2) Gauge Theory
Slavo Kratochvila, Philippe de Forcrand
At high temperature, every -dimensional theory can be reformulated as an effective theory in dimensions. We test the numerical accuracy of this Dimensional Reduction for…
't Hooft loops and consistent order parameters for confinement
Philippe de Forcrand, Lorenz von Smekal
We study ratios of partition functions in two types of sectors of SU(2), with fixed temporal center flux and with static fundamental charge. Both can be used as bona fide order par…
Finite-size scaling of interface free energies in the 3d Ising model
M. Pepe, Ph. de Forcrand
We perform a study of the universality of the finite size scaling functions of interface free energies in the 3d Ising model. Close to the hot/cold phase transition, we observe ver…
Static three- and four-quark potentials
C. Alexandrou, Ph. de Forcrand, A. Tsapalis
We present results for the static three- and four-quark potentials in SU(3) and SU(4) respectively. Using a variational approach, combined with multi-hit for the time-like links, w…
Quenched charmonium near the continuum limit
TARO Collaboration, S. Choe, Ph. de Forcrand +9
We study relativistic charmonium on very fine quenched lattices (beta=6.4 and 6.6). We concentrate on the calculation of the hyperfine splitting between eta_c and J/psi, aiming for…
The Quest for Light Sea Quarks: Algorithms for the Future
W. Schroers, N. Eicker, M. D'Elia +7
As part of a systematic algorithm study, we present first results on a performance comparison between a multibosonic algorithm and the hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm as employed by t…
Odd-flavor Hybrid Monte Carlo Algorithm for Lattice QCD
Tetsuya Takaishi, Philippe de Forcrand
We discuss hybrid Monte Carlo algorithms for odd-flavor lattice QCD simulations. The algorithms include a polynomial approximation which enables us to simulate odd-flavor QCD in th…
The static three-quark SU(3) and four-quark SU(4) potentials
C. Alexandrou, Ph. de Forcrand, A. Tsapalis
We present results on the static three- and four-quark potentials in SU(3) and SU(4) respectively within quenched lattice QCD. We use an analytic multi-hit procedure for the time l…
't Hooft Loops, Electric Flux Sectors and Confinement in SU(2) Yang-Mills Theory
Philippe de Forcrand, Lorenz von Smekal
We use 't Hooft loops of maximal size on finite lattices to calculate the free energy in the sectors of SU(2) Yang-Mills theory with fixed electric flux as a function of temperatur…
Responses of hadrons to chemical potential at finite temperature
TARO Collaboration, S. Choe, Ph. de Forcrand +9
We present a framework to compute the responses of hadron masses to the chemical potential in lattice QCD simulations. As a first trial, the screening mass of the pseudoscalar meso…
