QCD with Two Light Dynamical Chirally Improved Quarks: Baryons

Engel, Georg P., Lang, C. B., Mohler, Daniel et al.

Understand

We present a study of baryon ground states and low lying excitations of non-strange and strange baryons.

  • The results are based on seven gauge field ensembles with two dynamical light Chirally Improved (CI) quarks corresponding to pion masses between 255 and 596 MeV and a strange valence quark with mass fixed by the Omega baryon.
  • The lattice spacing varies between 0.1324 and 0.1398 fm.
  • Given in lattice units, the bulk of our results are for size 16^3\times 32, for two ensembles with light pion masses (255 and 330 MeV) we also use 24^3\times 48 lattices and perform an infinite volume extrapolation.
