Meson masses at large Nc
Abstract
We analyze the meson spectrum in SU(Nc) lattice gauge theory. We use Wilson quarks to measure the pseudoscalar and vector masses in SU(2), SU(3), SU(4) and SU(6), and extrapolate to the large-Nc limit. We find that finite-Nc corrections are small at all values of the quark mass.
