1. Introduction

Motivation :

Understand property of nuclei from (lattice) QCD directlythrough different approach from nuclear force, HALQCD

If we can study nuclei from QCD, we may be able to

1. reproduce spectrum of nuclei

2. predict property of nuclei hard to calculate or observesuch as neutron rich nuclei

So far only few works for multi-baryon bound statesBefore studying such difficult problems, we should check

→ Can we calculate known binding energy in a-few-nucleon systems?

Roughly consistentOur quenched and Nf = 3 → Large sea quark effect?

This work and Nf = 3 → Large quark mass effect?

Need further study of systematic errorssuch as quark mass dependence

5. Summary and future work

Extend our exploratory, quenched studies to Nf = 2+ 1 lattice QCD

• Heavy quark mass of mπ = 0.5 GeV

• Volume dependence of ∆E0

∆E ,= 0 of 0th state in infinite volume limit

→ bound state in 4He, 3He, 3S1 and 1S0 at mπ = 0.5 GeV

• Similar result to quenched case → ∆E larger than experiment

• Bound state in 1S0 not observed in experimentPossibility in Nf = 2+ 1 at mπ = 0.39 GeV (’12 NPLQCD)

Deeper bound state in Nf = 3 at mπ = 0.8 GeV (’12 NPLQCD)

Further investigations in Nf = 2+ 1, e.g. mπ dependence

(0.7 GeV ←) mπ = 0.5 GeV → 0.3 GeV → physical mπ(HPCI)
