Isospin breaking corrections to meson masses and the hadronic vacuum polarization: a comparative study

Abstract We calculate the strong isospin breaking and QED corrections to meson masses and the hadronic vacuum polarization in an exploratory study on a 64 × 243 lattice with an inverse lattice spacing of a −1 = 1.78 GeV and an isospin symmetric pion mass of m π = 340 MeV. We include QED in an electr...
