Book Description
Early scattering experiments revealed that the proton was not a point particle but a bound state of many quarks and gluons. Deep inelastic scattering (DIS) experiments have accurately determined the probability of struck quarks carrying a fraction of the proton's momentum. The current generation of experiments and Lattice QCD calculations will provide detailed multi-dimensional pictures of the distributions of quarks and gluons inside the proton.

Book Description
It is emphasized in the 2015 NSAC Long Range Plan [1] that \understanding the structure of hadrons in terms of QCD's quarks and gluons is one of the central goals of modern nuclear physics." Over the last three decades, lattice QCD has developed into a powerful tool for ab initio calculations of strong-interaction physics. Up until now, it is the only theoretical approach to solving QCD with controlled statistical and systematic errors. Since 1985, we have proposed and carried out rst-principles calculations of nucleon structure and hadron spectroscopy using lattice QCD which entails both algorithmic development and large scale computer simulation. We started out by calculating the nucleon form factors { electromagnetic [2], axial-vector [3], NN [4], and scalar [5] form factors, the quark spin contribution [6] to the proton spin, the strangeness magnetic moment [7], the quark orbital angular momentum [8], the quark momentum fraction [9], and the quark and glue decomposition of the proton momentum and angular momentum [10]. These rst round of calculations were done with Wilson fermions in the `quenched' approximation where the dynamical e ects of the quarks in the sea are not taken into account in the Monte Carlo simulation to generate the background gauge con gurations. Beginning in 2000, we have started implementing the overlap fermion formulation into the spectroscopy and structure calculations [11, 12]. This is mainly because the overlap fermion honors chiral symmetry as in the continuum. It is going to be more and more important to take the symmetry into account as the simulations move closer to the physical point where the u and d quark masses are as light as a few MeV only. We began with lattices which have quark masses in the sea corresponding to a pion mass at 300 MeV and obtained the strange form factors [13], charm and strange quark masses, the charmonium spectrum and the Ds meson decay constant fDs [14], the strangeness and charmness [15], the meson mass decomposition [16] and the strange quark spin from the anomalous Ward identity [17]. Recently, we have started to include multiple lattices with di erent lattice spacings and di erent volumes including large lattices at the physical pion mass point. We are getting quite close to being able to calculate the hadron structure at the physical point and to do the continuum and large volume extrapolations which is our ultimate aim. We have now nished several projects which have included these systematic corrections. They include the leptonic decay width of the [18], the N sigma and strange sigma terms [19], and the strange quark magnetic moment [20]. Over the years, we have also studied hadron spectroscopy with lattice calculations and in phenomenology. These include Roper resonance [21, 22], pentaquark state [23], charmonium spectrum [24, 14], glueballs [25, 26, 27, 28], scalar mesons a0(1450) and (600) [29] and other scalar mesons [30], and the 1+ meson [31]. In addition, we have employed the canonical approach to explore the rst order phase transition and the critical point at nite density and nite temperature [32, 33]. We have also discovered a new parton degree of freedom { the connected sea partons, from the path-integral formulation of the hadronic tensor [34, 35] which explains the experimentally observed Gottfried sum rule violation [34]. Combining experimental result on the strange parton distribution, the CT10 global tting results of the total u and d anti-partons and the lattice result of the ratio of the momentum fraction of the strange vs that of u or d in the disconnected insertion, we have shown that the connected sea partons can be isolated [36]. In this nal technical report, we shall present a few representative highlights that have been achieved in the project.

Structure of Nucleon Excited States from Lattice QCD
Author: Finn M. Stokes
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030257223
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 237
Book Description
Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) describes the interactions between elementary quarks and gluons as they compose the nucleons at the heart of atomic structure. The interactions give rise to complexity that can only be examined via numerical simulations on supercomputers. This work provides an introduction to the numerical simulations of lattice QCD and establishes new formalisms relevant to understanding the structure of nucleons and their excited states. The research opens with an examination of the non-trivial QCD vacuum and the emergence of “centre domains.” The focus then turns to establishing a novel Parity-Expanded Variational Analysis (PEVA) technique solving the important problem of isolating baryon states moving with finite momentum. This seminal work provides a foundation for future calculations of baryon properties. Implementation of the PEVA formalism discloses important systematic errors in conventional calculations and reveals the structure of nucleon excited states from the first principles of QCD for the first time.
