Abstract:
Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is the fundamental theory that describes strong interactions, exhibiting strong non-perturbative features in the low-energy regime, rendering perturbative methods ineffective. In 1974, Nobel laureate Kenneth G. Wilson proposed Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics (Lattice QCD), which allows for the study of the non-perturbative properties of QCD from first principles with the aid of supercomputers. After nearly fifty years of development, Lattice QCD has made precise predictions of the strong interaction effects in the low-energy regime possible, making it one of the forefront topics in contemporary particle and nuclear physics research. This report will focus on some of the latest research achievements of Lattice QCD applied to high-precision frontier studies in high-energy physics.
