Improved Upsilon Spectrum with Dynamical Wilson Fermions
We present results for the b \bar b spectrum obtained using an
O(M_bv^6)-correct non-relativistic lattice QCD action, where M_b denotes the
bare b-quark mass and v^2 is the mean squared quark velocity. Propagators are
evaluated on SESAM's three sets of dynamical gauge configurations generated
with two flavours of Wilson fermions at beta = 5.6. These results, the first of
their kind obtained with dynamical Wilson fermions, are compared to a quenched
analysis at equivalent lattice spacing, beta = 6.0. Using our three sea-quark
values we perform the ``chiral'' extrapolation to m_eff = m_s/3, where m_s
denotes the strange quark mass. The light quark mass dependence is found to be
small in relation to the statistical errors. Comparing the full QCD result to
our quenched simulation we find better agreement of our dynamical data with
experimental results in the spin-independent sector but observe no unquenching
effects in hyperfine-splittings. To pin down the systematic errors we have also
compared quenched results in different ``tadpole'' schemes as well as using a
lower order action. We find that spin-splittings with an O(M_bv^4) action are
O(10%) higher compared to O(M_bv^6) results. Relative to the results obtained
with the plaquette method the Landau gauge mean link tadpole scheme raises the
spin splittings by about the same margin so that our two improvements are
opposite in effect.Comment: 24 pages (latex file, Phys Rev D style file, uses epsf-style

Light Quark Masses with Dynamical Wilson Fermions
We determine the masses of the light and the strange quarks in the
-scheme using our high-statistics lattice simulation of QCD with
dynamical Wilson fermions. For the light quark mass we find
, which is lower than in quenched
simulations. For the strange quark, in a sea of two dynamical light quarks, we
obtain .Comment: 10 pages (latex file, uses epsf-style
Improving Stochastic Estimator Techniques for Disconnected Diagrams
Disconnected diagrams are expected to be sensitive to the inclusion of
dynamical fermions. We present a feasibility study for the observation of such
effects on the nucleonic matrix elements of the axial vector current, using
SESAM full QCD vacuum configurations with Wilson fermions on
lattices, at . Starting from the standard methods developed by the
Kentucky and Tsukuba groups, we investigate the improvement from various
refinements thereof.Comment: One author added. Contribution to Lattice 1997, 3 pages LaTex, to

On the low fermionic eigenmode dominance in QCD on the lattice
We demonstrate the utility of a spectral approximation to fermion loop
operators using low-lying eigenmodes of the hermitian Dirac-Wilson matrix, Q.
The investigation is based on a total of 400 full QCD vacuum configurations,
with two degenerate flavors of dynamical Wilson fermions at beta =5.6, at two
different sea quark masses. The spectral approach is highly competitive for
accessing both topological charge and disconnected diagrams, on large lattices
and small quark masses. We propose suitable partial summation techniques that
provide sufficient saturation for estimating Tr Q^{-1}, which is related to the
topological charge. In the effective mass plot of the eta' meson we achieved a
consistent early plateau formation, by ground state projecting the connected
piece of its propagator.Comment: 15 pages, 25 figures, citations adde
Decorrelating Topology with HMC
The investigation of the decorrelation efficiency of the HMC algorithm with
respect to vacuum topology is a prerequisite for trustworthy full QCD
simulations, in particular for the computation of topology sensitive
quantities. We demonstrate that for mpi/mrho ratios <= 0.69 sufficient
tunneling between the topological sectors can be achieved, for two flavours of
dynamical Wilson fermions close to the scaling region beta=5.6. Our results are
based on time series of length 5000 trajectories.Comment: change of comments: LATTICE98(confine

Flavor Singlet Axial Vector Coupling of the Proton with Dynamical Wilson Fermions
We present the results of a full QCD lattice calculation of the flavor
singlet axial vector coupling of the proton. The simulation has been
carried out on a lattice at with dynamical
Wilson fermions. It turns out that the statistical quality of the connected
contribution to is excellent, whereas the disconnected part is
accessible but suffers from large statistical fluctuations. Using a 1st order
tadpole improved renormalization constant , we estimate .Comment: 13 pages, 5 eps figures, minor changes to text and citation
Strangeness Content in the Nucleon
I review recent studies of strangeness content in the nucleon pertaining to
the flavor-singlet , the matrix element and the strangeness
electric and magnetic form factors and , based on
lattice QCD calculations. I shall also discuss the relevance of incorporating
the strangeness content in nuclei in regard to strange baryon-antibaryon
productions from proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions at SPS and RHIC
energies.Comment: 11 pages, 4 figures, Invited talk at V Int. Conf. on Strangeness in

Moments of Structure Functions in Full QCD
Moments of the quark density distribution, moments of the quark helicity
distribution, and the tensor charge are calculated in full QCD. Calculations of
matrix elements of operators from the operator product expansion have been
performed on lattices for Wilson fermions at
using configurations from the SESAM collaboration and at using
configurations from SCRI. One-loop perturbative renormalization corrections are
included. Selected results are compared with corresponding quenched
calculations and with calculations using cooled configurations.Comment: Lattice 2000 (Hadronic Matrix Elements), 4 pages, 5 figure
