Multi-hadron spectroscopy in a large physical volume (1710.04545v1)

Abstract: We demonstrate the efficacy of the stochastic LapH method to treat all-to-all quark propagation on a $N_f = 2+1$ CLS ensemble with large linear spatial extent $L = 5.5$ fm, allowing us to obtain the benchmark elastic isovector p-wave pion-pion scattering amplitude to good precision already on a relatively small number of gauge configurations. These results hold promise for multi-hadron spectroscopy at close-to-physical pion mass with exponential finite-volume effects under control.
