Description

We present results of one-loop perturbative matching factors for four-fermion operators constructed using HYP/$\overline{\rm FAT7}$ staggered fermions. We use both unimproved (Wilson) and improved (Symanzik) gluon actions. The latter choice of action is relevant to our ongoing project of calculating $B_K$ and $\epsilon'/\epsilon$. To estimate the quantitative effect of using Symanzik improved gluon action, we compare the following four choices of actions: (1) unimproved staggered fermions with Wilson gluons (2) HYP/$\overline{\rm FAT7}$ staggered fermions with Wilson gluons, (3) unimproved staggered fermions with Symanzik gluons, and (4) HYP/$\overline{\rm FAT7}$ staggered fermions with Symanzik gluons. We discuss the effect of the improved glue on reducing the size of one-loop perturbative corrections to four-fermion operators.
