Matching coefficients for improved staggered bilinears

  • 21 August 2002
Abstract
We calculate one-loop matching factors for bilinear operators composed of improved staggered fermions. We compare the results for different improvement schemes used in the recent literature, including the HYP action and an action close to the Asqtad action. We find that all improvement schemes substantially reduce the size of the one-loop contributions to matching factors. The resulting corrections are comparable to, or smaller than, those found with Wilson and domain-wall fermions.
