摘要

The massive Schwinger model is studied using a density matrix renormalization group approach to the staggered lattice Hamiltonian version of the model. Lattice sizes up to 256 sites are calculated, and the estimates in the continuum limit are almost two orders of magnitude more accurate than previous calculations. Coleman's picture of "half-asymptotic" particles at a background field theta=pi is confirmed. The predicted phase transition at finite fermion mass (m/g) is accurately located and demonstrated to belong in the 2D Ising universality class.
