Abstract
Abstract We compute pseudoscalar meson masses and decay constants using staggered quarks on lattices with three flavors of sea quarks and lattice spacing ≈ 0.12 fm and ≈ 0.09 fm. We fit partially quenched results to “staggered chiral perturbation theory” formulae, thereby taking into account the effects of taste-symmetry violations. Chiral logarithms are observed. From the fits we calculate f π and f ϰ, extract Gasser-Leutwyler parameters of the chiral Lagrangian, and (modulo rather large perturbative errors) find the light and strange quark masses.
