Chiral perturbation theory for twisted mass QCD at small quark mass | Satoru Ueda

1 Sep 2011 | Abstract: | We study the lattice cutoff ($a$) and quark mass dependences of pion masses
and decay constants in the $N_f = 2$ twisted mass QCD, using the Wilson chiral
perturbation theory to the next leading order (NLO). In order to investigate
the region near zero quark mass, we introduce the power counting scheme where
$O(a^2, am)$ terms are included in the tree level effective Lagrangian. At the
NLO of this power counting scheme, we calculate the charged pion mass and decay
constant as a function of the lattice cutoff as well as the twisted quark mass
at the maximal twist. In this paper, we adopt two different definitions for the
maximal twist. We confirm that the difference between the two appears as the
$O(a^2)$ effects so that the automatic $O(a)$ improvement is realized for both
definitions. | Source: | arXiv, 1109.0073 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
