Tests of Electric Polarizability on the Lattice

Using clover fermions on CP-PACS dynamical configurations, we consider a number of ways of measuring hadronic electric polarizability, an $|\mathbf{E}|^{2}$ effect in hadron masses, using lattice techniques. We consider the effects of periodic and Dirichlet boundary conditions, the field linearization postulate as well as a quantized electric field. We also consider two ways of formulating the classical vector potential which describes a uniform electric field in combination with the other possibilities.
