Hadronic decay width from finite-volume energy spectrum in lattice QCD

arXiv:1010.1390 · doi:10.1063/1.3483443

Abstract

The standard approach to determine the parameters of a resonance is based on the study of the volume dependence of the energy spectrum. In this work we study a non-linear sigma model coupled to a scalar field in which a resonance emerges. Using an analysis method introduced recently, based on the concept of probability distribution, it is possible to determine the mass and the width of the resonance.
