摘要:We report preliminary results of a Wilson Chiral Perturbation Theory (WChPT) analysis of
twisted mass lattice QCD data. The quenched data, previously published by two different groups,
was generatedwith two definitions for the critical quarkmass and shows a strong non-linear quark
mass dependence for small quark masses for the pion mass definition (“bending phenomenon”).
We find that WChPT describes this characteristic curvature fairly well. Fits to the data provide
estimates for combinations of low-energy parameters, even though the errors are sizable.
