Multi-hadron states in Lattice QCD spectroscopy
The ability to reliably measure the energy of an excited hadron in Lattice
QCD simulations hinges on the accurate determination of all lower-lying
energies in the same symmetry channel. These include not only single-particle
energies, but also the energies of multi-hadron states. This talk deals with
the determination of multi-hadron energies in Lattice QCD. The
group-theoretical derivation of lattice interpolating operators that couple
optimally to multi-hadron states is described. We briefly discuss recent
algorithmic developments which allow for the efficient implementation of these
operators in software, and present numerical results from the Hadron Spectrum
Collaboration.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, talk given at Hadron 2009, Tallahassee, Florida,

A non-perturbative study of the action parameters for anisotropic-lattice quarks
A quark action designed for highly anisotropic lattice simulations is
discussed. The mass-dependence of the parameters in the action is studied and
the results are presented. Applications of this action in studies of heavy
quark quantities are described and results are presented from simulations at an
anisotropy of six, for a range of quark masses from strange to bottom.Comment: 9 pages, 8 figure
The spectrum of radial, orbital and gluonic excitations of charmonium
We present results for the charmonium spectrum from dynamical QCD
simulations on anisotropic lattices. Using all-to-all
propagators we determine the ground and excited states of S, P and D waves and
hybrids. We also evaluate the disconnected (OZI suppressed) contribution to the

Excitations of torelon
The excitations of gluonic flux tube in a periodic lattice are examined.
Monte Carlo simulations from an anisotropic lattice are presented and the
comparison with effective string models is discussed.Comment: Talk at Lattice 2003; 3 pages, 4 figure
