Lattice QCD for Novices

Abstract

This is the "preprint" for a paper that came out in 1998 but for some reason wasn't posted then. Abstract:These lectures are for novices to lattice QCD. They introduce a set of simple ideas and numerical techniques that can be implemented in a short period of time and that are capabable of generating nontrivial, nonperturbative results from lattice QCD. The simplest of these calculations can be completed on a standard workstation or high-end personal computer.

    • You might enjoy Lepage’s “Lattice QCD for novices” which develops a lot of the ideas without getting bogged down in the specifics of QCD (it focuses on the harmonic oscillator + a harmonic oscillator). [0] https://arxiv.org/abs/hep-lat/0506036
