This is an exploratory study of the lightest non-singlet scalar qq state on the lattice with two dynamical quarks. Domain wall fermions are used for both sea and valence quarks on a 16 3 × 32 lattice with an inverse lattice spacing of 1.7 GeV. We extract the scalar meson mass 1.58 ± 0.34 GeV from the exponential time-dependence of the dynamical correlators with m val = m sea and N f = 2. Since this statistical error-bar from dynamical correlators is rather large, we analyze also the partially quenched lattice correlators with m val = m sea . They are positive for m val ≥ m sea and negative for m val < m sea . In order to understand this striking effect of partial quenching, we derive the scalar correlator within the Partially Quenched ChPT and find it describes lattice correlators well. The leading unphysical contribution in Partially Quenched ChPT comes from the exchange of the two pseudoscalar fields and is also positive for m val ≥ m sea and negative for m val < m sea at large t. After the subtraction of this unphysical contribution from the partially quenched lattice correlators, the correlators are positive and exponentially falling. The resulting scalar meson mass 1.51 ±0.19 GeV from the partially quenched correlators is consistent with the dynamical result and has appreciably smaller error-bar.
