Abstract:
We compare two approaches used for computing scattering phase shifts and other low-energy observables in lattice QCD: the finite size method invented by Lüscher as well as the recently introduced HAL QCD method which is based on the extraction of multi body potentials from Nambu-Bethe-Salpeter wave functions. We perform quenched QCD simulations featuring lattices with spatial extents of 1 : 8 fm to 5 : 5 fm, a lattice spacing of 0 : 115 fm and a pion mass of 940 MeV. We compute phase shifts and scattering length of pp scattering in the I = 2 channel for either method and compare the results.
