In this paper we investigate the benefits of using Z(2)xZ(2) single timeslice stochastic sources for the calculation of light quark physics on the lattice. Meson 2-point correlators measured using sources stochastic in only spin and those stochastic in both spin and colour indices are compared to point source correlators on the unit gauge and on a 16^3 x 32 Domain Wall QCD ensemble. It is found that the use of stochastic sources gives a considerable improvement in statistics for the same computational cost. The neutral kaon mixing matrix element B_K is also calculated on this ensemble with stochastic sources, but we conclude that the stochastic method offers no significant advantage over the traditional gauge-fixed wall source approach which already offers an exact volume average. We also discuss the application to semileptonic form factors in conjunction with partially twisted boundary conditions.
We determine the strange quark condensate from lattice QCD for the first time and compare its value to that of the light quark and chiral condensates. The results come from a direct calculation of the expectation value of the trace of the quark propa
We compute the strange quark mass $m_s$ and the average of the $u$ and $d$ quark masses $hat m$ using full lattice QCD with three dynamical quarks combined with experimental values for the pion and kaon masses. The simulations have degenerate $u$ and
We determine the strange and light quark condensates in full lattice QCD for the first time. This is done by direct calculation of the expectation value of the trace of the quark propagator followed by subtraction of the appropriate perturbative cont
We study quark confinement physics using lattice QCD. In the maximally abelian (MA) gauge, the off-diagonal gluon amplitude is strongly suppressed, and then the off-diagonal gluon phase shows strong randomness, which leads to a large effective off-di
We study the heavy-heavy-light quark ($QQq$) potential in SU(3) quenched lattice QCD, and discuss one of the roles of the finite-mass valence quark in the inter-quark potential. Monte Carlo simulations are performed with the standard gauge action on
