Spectral parameters of the ρ resonance from lattice QCD by The CLQCD collaboration, Zhengli Wang, Derek B. Leinweber, Chuan Liu, Liuming Liu, Peng Sun, Anthony W. Thomas, Jia-jun Wu, Hanyang Xing, Kang Yu

“…The extrapolated values for the mass and width in the Breit-Wigner form are (m ρ , Γ ρ ) = (781.6 ± 10.0, 146.5 ± 9.9) MeV, which are in good agreement with experiment. An alternative method of analysis, based on Hamiltonian effective field theory, involves directly fitting the lattice energy levels and accounting for the quark mass dependence of the hadronic loop diagrams which yield the leading and next-to-leading non-analytic behaviour. …”
