Non-Perturbative Renormalization for Staggered Fermions (Self-energy Analysis)

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

We present preliminary results of data analysis for the non-perturbative renormalization (NPR) on the self-energy of the quark propagators calculated using HYP improved staggered fermions on the MILC asqtad lattices. We use the momentum source to generate the quark propagators. In principle, using the vector projection operator of (γμ⊗1ˉˉ)(\bar{\bar{γ_μ\otimes 1}}) and the scalar projection operator (1⊗1ˉˉ)(\bar{\bar{1 \otimes 1}}), we should be able to obtain the wave function renormalization factor Zq′Z_q' and the mass renormalization factor Zq⋅ZmZ_q \cdot Z_m. Using the MILC coarse lattice, we obtain a preliminary but reasonable estimate of Zq′Z_q' and Zq⋅ZmZ_q \cdot Z_m from the data analysis on the self-energy.
