Asymptotic behavior of Nambu-Bethe-Salpeter wave functions for scalar systems with a bound state

We study the asymptotic behaviors of the Nambu-Bethe-Salpeter (NBS) wave functions, which are important for the HAL QCD potential method to extract hadron interactions, in the case that a bound state exists in the system. We consider the complex scalar particles, two of which lead to the formation of a bound state. In the case of the two-body system, we show that the NBS wave functions for the bound state as well as scattering states in the asymptotic region behave like the wave functions in quantum mechanics, which carry the information of the binding energy as well as the scattering phase shift. This analysis theoretically establishes under some conditions that the HAL QCD potential can correctly reproduce not only the scattering phase shift but also the binding energy. As an extension of the analysis, we also study the asymptotic behaviors of all possible NBS wave functions in the case of the three-body systems, two of which can form a bound states.Comment: 16 pages; published versio

Phase structure and the gluon propagator of SU(2) gauge-Higgs model in two dimensions

We study numerically the phase structure and the gluon propagator of the SU(2) gauge-Higgs model in two dimensions. First, we calculate gauge-invariant quantities, in particular the static potential from Wilson Loop, the W propagator, and the plaquette expectation value. Our results suggest that a confinement-like region and a Higgs-like region appear even in two dimensions. In the confinement-like region, the static potential rises linearly, with string breaking at large distances, while in the Higgs-like region, it is of Yukawa type, consistent with a Higgs-type mechanism. The correlation length obtained from the W propagator has a finite maximum between these regions. The plaquette expectation value shows a smooth cross-over consistent with the Fradkin-Shenker-Osterwalder-Seiler theorem. From these results, we suggest that there is no phase transition in two dimensions. We also calculate a gauge-dependent order parameter in Landau gauge. Unlike gauge invariant quantities, the gauge non-invariant order parameter has a line of discontinuity separating these two regions. Finally we calculate the gluon propagtor. We infer from its infrared behavior that the gluon propagator would vanish at zero momentum in the infinite-volume limit, consistent with an analytical study.Comment: accepted in JHE

Gluon Propagators in Maximally Abelian Gauge in SU(3) Lattice QCD

In SU(3) lattice QCD, we study diagonal and off-diagonal gluon propagators in the maximally Abelian (MA) gauge with U(1)_3 \timesU(1)_8 Landau gauge fixing. These propagators are studied both in the coordinate space and in the momentum space. The Monte Carlo simulation is performed on $16^4$ at $\beta$=6.0 and $32^4$ at $\beta$=5.8 and 6.0 at the quenched level. In the four-dimensional Euclidean space-time, the effective mass of diagonal gluons is estimated as $M_{\mathrm{diag}} \simeq 0.3\mathrm{GeV}$ and that of off-diagonal gluons as $M_{\mathrm{off}} \simeq 1\mathrm{GeV}$ in the region of $r =0.4-1.0$fm. In the momentum space, the effective mass of diagonal gluons is estimated as $M_{\mathrm{diag}} \simeq 0.3\mathrm{GeV}$ and that of off-diagonal gluons as $M_{\mathrm{off}} \simeq 1\mathrm{GeV}$ in the region of $p <1.1$GeV. The off-diagonal gluon propagator is relatively suppressed in the infrared region and seems to be finite at zero momentum, while the diagonal gluon propagator is enhanced. Furthermore, we also study the functional form of these propagators in momentum space. These propagators are well fitted by $Z/(p^2+m^2)^\nu$ with fit parameters, $Z, m$ and $\nu$ in the region of $p <3.0$GeV. From the fit results and lattice calculations, all of the spectral functions of diagonal and off-diagonal gluons would have negative regions.Comment: Continues and extends arXiv:1207.437
