We report on the results of a numerical simulation concerning the low-lying spectrum of four-dimensional N=1 SU(2) Supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory on the lattice with light dynamical gluinos. In the gauge sector the tree-level Symanzik improve
d gauge action is used, while we use the Wilson formulation in the fermion sector with stout smearing of the gauge links in the Wilson-Dirac operator. The ensembles of gauge configurations were produced with the Two-Step Polynomial Hybrid Monte Carlo (TS-PHMC) updating algorithm. We performed simulations on large lattices up to a size of 24^3 x 48 at $beta=1.6$. Using QCD units with the Sommer scale being set to r_0 = 0.5 fm, the lattice spacing is about a ~ 0.09 fm, and the spatial extent of the lattice corresponds to 2.1 fm. At the lightest simulated gluino mass the spin-1/2 gluino-glue bound state appeared to be considerably heavier than its expected super-partner, the pseudoscalar bound state. Whether supermultiplets are formed remains to be studied in upcoming simulations.

Using QCD units with the Sommer scale being set to r_0=0.5 fm, the lattice spacing is about a~0.09 fm, and the spatial extent of the lattice corresponds to 2.1 fm to control finite size effects. At the lightest simulated gluino mass our results indicate a mass for the lightest gluino-glue bound state, which is considerably heavier than the values obtained for its possible superpartners. Whether supermultiplets are formed remains to be studied in upcoming simulations.
The lattice provides a powerful tool to non-perturbatively investigate strongly coupled supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theories. The pure SU(2) SYM theory with one supercharge is simulated on large lattices with small Majorana gluino masses down to
about $am_{tilde g}=0.068$ with lattice spacing $asimeq 0.125$ fm. The gluino dynamics is simulated by the Two-Step Multi-Boson (TSMB) and the Two-Step Polynomial Hybrid Monte Carlo (TS-PHMC) algorithms. Supersymmetry (SUSY) is broken explicitly by the lattice and the Wilson term and softly by the presence of a non-vanishing gluino mass. However, the recovery of SUSY is expected in the infinite volume continuum limit by tuning the bare parameters to the SUSY point in the parameter space. This scenario is studied by the determination of the low-energy mass spectrum and by means of lattice SUSY Ward-Identities (WIs).
We perform Monte Carlo investigations of the 4d ${cal N}=1$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory on the lattice with dynamical gluinos in the adjoint representation of the SU(2) gauge group. Our aim is to determine the mass spectrum of the low-lyin
g bound states which is expected to be organised in supermultiplets in the infinite volume continuum limit. For this purpose we perform simulations on large lattices, up to an extension $L/r_0 simeq 6$ where $r_0 simeq 0.5 rm fm$ is the Sommer scale parameter. We apply improved lattice actions: tree-level improved Symanzik (tlSym) gauge action and in the later runs a Stout-smeared Wilson fermion action. The gauge configuration samples are prepared by the Two-Step Polynomial Hybrid Monte Carlo (TS-PHMC) update algorithm.
