Infinite Volume, Continuum Limit of Valence Approximation Hadron Masses

TL;DR

This paper estimates hadron mass ratios using Wilson quarks in the valence approximation, extrapolating to physical quark mass, infinite volume, and zero lattice spacing to approach continuum limits.

Contribution

It provides new estimates of hadron mass ratios in the continuum limit within the valence approximation framework.

Findings

Hadron mass ratios extrapolated to physical quark mass

Results obtained at infinite volume and zero lattice spacing

Approach approaches continuum limit in valence approximation

Abstract

We obtain estimates of several hadron mass ratios, for Wilson quarks in the valence (quenched) approximation, extrapolated to physical quark mass, infinite volume and zero lattice spacing.
