摘要
We report an exploratory lattice QCD investigation of the sigma meson decay width though the s-wave scattering phase shift for isospin I = 0 pion-pion (pi pi) system. Rummukainen-Gottlieb formula is used to estimate the scattering phase for the two-pion system in the moving frame, which demonstrate the presence of a resonance around sigma meson. Using the effective range formula we extract the effective sigma -> pi pi coupling constant as g(sigma pi pi) = 2.69(44) GeV, which is consistent with the theoretical predictions. The estimated decay width is about 236 +/- 49 MeV. These simulations are carried out on a 16(3) x 48 MILC gauge configuration with the N-f = 2 + 1 flavor of the "Asqtad" improved staggered dynamical sea quarks at m(pi)/m(sigma) approximate to 0.414 and the lattice spacing a approximate to 0.15 fm.
