Relativistic corrections to the static potential at O(1/m) and O(1/m^2)

arXiv:0711.2322

Abstract

We investigate the relativistic corrections to the static potential, i.e. the O(1/m) potential and the O(1/m^2) velocity-dependent potentials, in SU(3) lattice gauge theory. They are important ingredients of potential nonrelativistic QCD for heavy quarkonium. Utilizing the multi-level algorithm, we obtain remarkably clean signals of these potentials up to r=0.9 fm. We observe long range nonperturbative contributions to these corrections.
