Resonance parameters of the rho-meson from asymmetrical lattices

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

We present a lattice QCD calculation of the parameters of the ρρ meson decay. The study is carried out on spatially asymmetric boxes using nHYP-smeared clover fermions with two mass-degenerate quark flavors. Our calculations are carried out at a pion mass mπ=304(2)m_π=304(2) MeV on the set of lattices V=242×η24×48V=24^2\times η24\times48 with η=1.0,1.25η=1.0,1.25, and 2.0 with lattice spacing a=0.1255(7)a=0.1255(7) fm. The resonance mass mρ=827(3)(5)m_ρ=827(3)(5) MeV and coupling constant gρππ=6.67(42)g_{ρππ}=6.67(42) are calculate using the P-wave scattering phase shifts. We construct a 2×\times2 correlation matrix to extract the energy of the scattering states and compute the phase shifts using the finite volume formula. By varying the degree of asymmetry, we are able to compute a set of phase shifts that are evenly distributed throughout the spectral region where the ρρ decays.
