Hadron spectroscopy with dynamical chirally improved fermions

Zusammenfassung

We simulate two dynamical, mass-degenerate light quarks on 16(3)x32 lattices with a spatial extent of 2.4 fm using the chirally improved Dirac operator. The simulation method, the implementation of the action, and signals of equilibration are discussed in detail. Based on the eigenvalues of the Dirac operator we discuss some qualitative features of our approach. Results for ground-state masses of pseudoscalar and vector mesons as well as for the nucleon and delta baryons are presented.
