Finite size scaling in minimal walking technicolor

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

We compare observables to the finite size scaling hypothesis in SU(2) lattice gauge theory with two Dirac fermions in the adjoint representation. The fits that we obtain yield an estimate of the anomalous mass dimension that is consistent with four loop perturbation theory: γ=0.51±0.16γ= 0.51 \pm 0.16, with the error due to systematic uncertainties in the finite size scaling analysis. The result is somewhat larger than one Schrödinger functional study (by 1.3σσ) but consistent with another.
