Description

Electromagnetic effects play an important role in many phenomena such as isospin symmetry breaking in the hadron spectrum, hadronic contributions to g-2, etc. We have generalized the MILC QCD code to include the electromagnetic field. In this work, we focus on simulations including charged sea quarks using the RHMC algorithm. We explain the algorithm, code performance, and results for some observables.
