Topological susceptibility and the sampling of field space in $N_f=2$ lattice QCD simulations

arXiv:1406.5363 · doi:10.1007/JHEP08(2014)150

Abstract

We present a measurement of the topological susceptibility in two flavor QCD. In this observable, large autocorrelations are present and also sizable cutoff effects have to be faced in the continuum extrapolation. Within the statistical accuracy of the computation, the result agrees with the expectation from leading order chiral perturbation theory.
