Description

We calculate meson correlators in the ε-regime within partially quenched chiral perturbation theory. The valence quark masses and sea quark masses can be chosen arbitrary and all non-degenerate. Taking some of the sea quark masses to infinity, one obtains a smooth connection among the theories with different number of flavors, as well as the quenched theory. These results can be directly compared with lattice QCD simulations
