abstract
We apply Schrodinger-functional techniques to the SU(2) lattice gauge theory with N_f=2 flavors of fermions in the adjoint representation. Our use of hypercubic smearing enables us to work at stronger couplings than did previous studies, before encountering a critical point and a bulk phase boundary. Measurement of the running coupling constant gives evidence of an infrared fixed point g* where 1/g*^2 = 0.20(4)(3). At the fixed point, we find a mass anomalous dimension gamma_m(g*) = 0.31(6).

SU(2) gauge theory with one and two adjoint fermions towards the continuum limit
Extended lattice simulations yield continuum-limit anomalous dimensions γ* = 0.170(6) for Nf=1 and γ* = 0.291(9) for Nf=2 adjoint SU(2), with chiral perturbation theory ruling out spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking.
