Abstract

The study of excited hadron spectra using Lattice QCD is currently evolving. An important step toward obtaining resonance parameters from Lattice QCD is the calculation of finite volume energy spectra. Somewhat more rigorous studies of finite volum e spectra are currently possible and should be completed in the near future. The inclusion of disconnected diagrams is increasingly commonplace and the simplest systems which involve mixing between single- and multi-hadron interpolating fields are being studied. Advances in all-to- all algorithms which have been crucial in this progress are reviewed and a survey of current results is given. Nevertheless, such results are preliminary and a thorough discussion of systematic errors is required. We discuss several such sources of error, focussing on excited state contamination and the use of the generalized eigenvalue problem. Also, the calculation of matrix elements between finite volume Hamiltonian eigenstates is discussed. CERN-PH-TH/2011-300
