Abstract:
We perform a model study on the 2-flavor lattice Schwinger model using standard Wilson and O(a){\cal O}(a) improved Sheikholeslami-Wohlert (SW) action. We find, that the phase diagram is altered, the critical line shifted closer towards its continuum value κc=0.25\kappa_c=0.25. We find no improvement in the rotation invariance of meson propagators; the scaling of the Schwinger mass is considerably improved, high momentum states are not. The additional cost of 30\approx 30 % CPU-time is highly justified when calculating masses, but not for high momentum observables.
