Abstract

The use of novel perturbatively-improved gluonic actions on anisotropic lattices in which the temporal spacing is much smaller than that in the spatial directions is discussed. Such actions permit more efficient measurements of noisy correlation functions, such as glueball correlators, on coarse lattices. A derivation of these actions at tree-level is outlined; mean-field link renormalization plays a crucial role in their construction. Results for the low-lying glueball masses and the heavy-quark potential are presented.
