These ensembles have N f= 2+ 1 flavors of non-perturbatively improved Wilson fermions in …

Ab initio calculation of the neutron-proton mass difference

S Borsanyi, S Durr, Z Fodor, C Hoelbling, SD Katz… - Science, 2015 - science.org
The existence and stability of atoms rely on the fact that neutrons are more massive than
protons. The measured mass difference is only 0.14% of the average of the two masses. A …

Lattice QCD with open boundary conditions and twisted-mass reweighting

M Lüscher, S Schaefer - Computer Physics Communications, 2013 - Elsevier
Lattice QCD simulations at small lattice spacings and quark masses close to their physical
values are technically challenging. In particular, the simulations can get trapped in the …
