Description

When calculating isospin-breaking corrections to hadronic quantities, sea quark effects are often neglected. In this work by the RBC/UKQCD collaboration, based on their domain-wall fermion ensembles combined with an all-to-all approach, we discuss our strategy for computing the disconnected isospin-breaking contributions to light pseudo-scalar meson masses and matrix elements. We will present our strategy for the calculation of disconnected quantities and discuss results for isospin-breaking corrections to light pseudo scalar meson masses using an all-to-all approach and low-mode averaging.
