Physical-mass calculation of <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><mml:mi>ρ</mml:mi><mml:mo stretchy="false">(</mml:mo><mml:mn>770</mml:mn><mml:mo stretchy="false">)</mml:mo></mml:math> and <mml:math xmlns:mml="ht
We present our study of the <a:math xmlns:a="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><a:mi>ρ</a:mi><a:mo stretchy="false">(</a:mo><a:mn>770</a:mn><a:mo stretchy="false">)</a:mo></a:math> and <e:math xmlns:e="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><e:msup><e:mi>K</e:mi><e:mo>*</e:mo></e:msup><e:mo stretchy="false">(</e:mo><e:mn>892</e:mn><e:mo stretchy="false">)</e:mo></e:math> resonances from lattice quantum chromodynamics (QCD) employing domain-wall fermions at physical quark masses. We determine the finite-volume energy spectrum in various momentum frames and obtain phase-shift parametrizations via the Lüscher formalism and as a final step the complex resonance poles of the <i:math xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><i:mi>π</i:mi><i:mi>π</i:mi></i:math> and <k:math xmlns:k="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><k:mi>K</k:mi><k:mi>π</k:mi></k:math> elastic scattering amplitudes via an analytical continuation of the models. By sampling a large number of representative sets of underlying energy-level fits, we also assign a systematic uncertainty to our final results. This is a significant extension to data-driven analysis methods that have been used in lattice QCD to date, due to the two-step nature of the formalism.

The four differently grouped sources of uncertainties are, in the order of occurrence: statistical, data-driven systematic, an estimation of systematic effects beyond our computation (dominated by the fact that we employ a single lattice spacing), and the error from the scale-setting uncertainty on our ensemble.
