Abstract

We perform an extrapolation from negative to positive flavour numbers of full QCD lattice estimates of the η′ mass. The extrapolations are carried out by keeping ϱ and π masses at fixed values. We find an η′-π splitting which shows a flavour dependence consistent with the Witten-Veneziano formula based on the U(1) anomaly. The quantitative splitting is consistent with the estimates made in the quenched approximation.
