FK/Fπ as a precision test of a new four flavor Domain Wall Fermion action

Abstract

We present a new set of lattice QCD ensembles with four flavors of smeared M\"obius Domain Wall Fermions with good chiral symmetry and small fifth-dimensional extent. A modest amount of computing resources was sufficient to generate 30 publicly-available ensembles spanning five lattice spacings and a broad range of pion masses down to physical. To scrutinize our action we determine FK/Fπ = 1.1962(34), a key quantity for precision CKM unitarity tests, heralding a future of inexpensive high-precision calculations of hadronic observables with chiral fermions.
