Supermultiplets of the N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in the continuum limit

TL;DR

This paper investigates the spectrum of N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory using lattice calculations, demonstrating the formation of degenerate supermultiplets as the continuum limit is approached.

Contribution

It provides the first detailed lattice-based analysis of supermultiplet formation in N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in the continuum limit.

Findings

Mass degeneracy consistent with supermultiplet formation

Extrapolation towards zero gluino mass

Continuum limit aligns with supersymmetry expectations

Abstract

The spectrum of N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, calculated on the lattice, is presented. The masses have been determined on three different lattice spacings and extrapolated towards vanishing gluino mass. We present the extrapolation to the continuum limit which is consistent with the formation of degenerate supermultiplets.
