Abstract: (arXiv)
We perform a lattice QCD study of the ρ\rho meson decay from the Nf=2+1N_f=2+1 full QCD configurations generated with a renormalization group improved gauge action and a non-perturbatively O(a)O(a)-improved Wilson fermion action. The resonance parameters, the effective ρππ\rho\to\pi\pi coupling constant and the resonance mass, are estimated from the PP-wave scattering phase shift for the isospin I=1 two-pion system. The finite size formulas are employed to calculate the phase shift from the energy on the lattice. Our calculations are carried out at two quark masses, mπ=410MeVm_\pi=410\,{\rm MeV} (mπ/mρ=0.46m_\pi/m_\rho=0.46) and mπ=300MeVm_\pi=300\,{\rm MeV} (mπ/mρ=0.35m_\pi/m_\rho=0.35), on a 323×6432^3\times 64 (La=2.9fmLa=2.9\,{\rm fm}) lattice at the lattice spacing a=0.091fma=0.091\,{\rm fm}. We compare our results at these two quark masses with those given in the previous works using Nf=2N_f=2 full QCD configurations and the experiment.
