Nucleon strangeness form factors and moments of PDF

The calculation of the nucleon strangeness form factors from N_f=2+1 clover fermion lattice QCD is presented. Disconnected insertions are evaluated using the Z(4) stochastic method, along with unbiased subtractions from the hopping parameter expansion. We find that increasing the number of nucleon sources for each configuration improves the signal significantly. We obtain G_M^s(0) = -0.017(25)(07), which is consistent with experimental values, and has an order of magnitude smaller error. Preliminary results for the strangeness contribution to the second moment of the parton distribution function are also presented.

Nucleon strangeness form factors from N_f=2+1 clover fermion lattice QCD

We present the N_f=2+1 clover fermion lattice QCD calculation of the nucleon strangeness form factors. We evaluate disconnected insertions using the Z(4) stochastic method, along with unbiased subtractions from the hopping parameter expansion. We find that increasing the number of nucleon sources for each configuration improves the signal significantly. We obtain G_M^s(0) = -0.017(25)(07), where the first error is statistical, and the second is the uncertainties in Q^2 and chiral extrapolations. This is consistent with experimental values, and has an order of magnitude smaller error.

The calculation of nucleon strangeness form factors from N_f=2+1 clover fermion lattice QCD

We study the strangeness electromagnetic form factors of the nucleon from the N_f=2+1 clover fermion lattice QCD calculation. The disconnected insertions are evaluated using the Z(4) stochastic method, along with unbiased subtractions from the hopping parameter expansion. In addition to increasing the number of Z(4) noises, we find that increasing the number of nucleon sources for each configuration improves the signal significantly. We obtain G_M^s(0) = -0.017(25)(07), where the first error is statistical, and the second is the uncertainties in Q^2 and chiral extrapolations. This is consistent with experimental values, and has an order of magnitude smaller error. We also study the strangeness second moment of the partion distribution function of the nucleon, _{s-\bar{s}}.

Light scalar mesons in 2+1 flavor full QCD

We study the a_0 and K_0^* light scalar mesons in 2+1 flavor full QCD. Particular attention is paid to fitting excited states, with an eye toward determining whether scattering states are revealed. An ultimate goal will be to see how dynamical quarks affect the picture outlined with an earlier quenched study using overlap fermions, namely, that it is the a_0(1450), not the a_0(980), which is the lowest $\bar{q}q$ isovector scalar state.

2+1 flavor QCD calculation of and

We calculate the connected insertions of the nucleon three-point function to study the first few moments of the unpolarized structure functions of the nucleon. (The disconnected insertions are discussed elsewhere in these proceedings). The calculation employs the CP-PACS/JLQCD 2+1 dynamical clover fermions on a 16^3x32 lattice with lattice spacing a=0.1219 fm. The sequential source technique, using non-zero and zero momentum point nucleon field as the secondary source, is applied enabling a study of different currents at various momentum transfer.

Strangeness and glue in the nucleon from lattice QCD

We study the strangeness contribution to nucleon matrix elements using Nf=2+1 dynamical clover fermion configurations generated by the CP-PACS/JLQCD collaboration. In order to evaluate the disconnected insertion (DI), we use the Z(4) stochastic method, along with unbiased subtraction from the hopping parameter expansion which reduces the off-diagonal noises in the stochastic method. Furthermore, we find that using many nucleon sources for each configuration is effective in improving the signal. Our results for the quark contribution to the first moment _q in the DI, and the strangeness magnetic moment show that the statistical errors are under control with these techniques. We also study the gluonic contribution to the nucleon using the overlap operator to construct the gauge field tensor, F_{mu,nu}. The application to the calculation of first moment, _G, gives a good signal in quenched lattice QCD.
