DeTar, Carleton | Chiral logs with staggered fermions | We compute chiral logarithms in the presence of "taste" symmetry breaking of staggered fermions. The lagrangian of Lee and Sharpe is generalized and then used to calculate the logs in π and K masses. We correct an error in Ref. [1]; the issue turns out to have implications for the comparison with ... | Staggered fermions; Chiral logs | 2003-05 |

DeTar, Carleton | Exotic hybrid mesons from improved Kogut-Susskind fermions | We summarize our measurement of the mass of the exotic 1−+ hybrid meson using an improved Kogut-Susskind action. We show results from both quenched and dynamical quark simulations and compare with results from Wilson quarks. Extrapolation of these results to the physical quark mass allows compar... | Chromomagnetic field; Kogut-Susskind fermions; Wilson quarks | 2003-05 |

DeTar, Carleton | Heavy-light meson decay constants with N f = 3 | During the past year the MILC Collaboration has continued its study of heavy-light meson decay constants with three dynamical quarks. Calculations have been extended to a second lattice spacing of about 0.09 fm. At this lattice spacing, there are results in the quenched approximation and for thr... | Dynamical quarks | 2003-05 |

DeTar, Carleton | Light hadron properties with improved staggered quarks | Preliminary results from simulations with 2+1 dynamical quark flavors at a lattice spacing of 0.09 fm are combined with earlier results at a = 0.13 fm. We examine the approach to the continuum limit and investigate the dependence of the pseudoscalar masses and decay constants as the sea and valence... | Staggered quarks | 2003-05 |

DeTar, Carleton | Static hybrid quarkonium potential with improved staggered quarks | We are studying the effects of light dynamical quarks on the excitation energies of a flux tube between a static quark and antiquark. We report preliminary results of an analysis of the ground state potential and the ∑g′+ and Πu potentials. We have measured these potentials on closely matched... | Quarkonium; Staggered quarks; Flux tube | 2003-05 |

DeTar, Carleton | Topological susceptibility with the improved Asqtad action | As a test of the chiral properties of the improved Asqtad (staggered fermion) action, we have been measuring the topological susceptibility as a function of quark masses for 2 + 1 dynamical flavors. We report preliminary results, which show reasonable agreement with leading order chiral perturbatio... | Topological cbarge; Staggered fermions | 2003-05 |
