Understanding nucleon structure using lattice simulations

This review focuses on the discussion of three key results of nucleon structure calculations on the lattice. These three results are the quark contribution to the nucleon spin, J_q, the nucleon-Δ transition form factors, and the nucleon axial coupling, g_A. The importance for phenomenology and experiment is discussed and the requirements for future simulations are pointed out.     

Recent advances in lattice gauge theories

Recent progress in the field of lattice gauge theories is briefly reviewed for a nonspecialist audience. While the emphasis is on the latest and more definitive results that have emerged prior to this symposium, an effort has been made to provide them with minimal technicalities.     

夸克胶子混合真空凝聚和Dyson-Schwinger方程

基于夸克传播子的Dyson-Schwinger方程，计算了夸克胶子混合真空凝聚和夸克真空凝聚. 这些凝聚不仅联系着夸克在真空态中的虚度，而且也表征了真空中夸克分布的空间宽度. 真空凝聚的存在直接反映着QCD真空的非微扰结构. 计算表明：上夸克与下夸克的虚度为λ²_u,d=0.7GeV²，奇异夸克的虚度为λ²_s=1.6GeV². 这些结果与许多用完全不同的方法得到的结果一致.     

Trouble finding the optimal AdS/QCD

In the bottom-up approach to AdS/QCD based on a five-dimensional gravity dilaton action the exponential of the dilaton field is usually identified as the strong or 't Hooft coupling. There is currently no model known which fits the measurements of the running coupling and lattice results for pressure at the same time. With a one parametric toy model we demonstrate the effect of fitting the pressure on the coupling and vice versa.     

Vacuum condensates of QCD

We study the properties of QCD vacuum state in this paper. The values of various local quark vacuum condensates, quark-gluon mixed vacuum condensates, and the structure of non-local quark vacuum condensate are predicted by the solution of Dyson-Schwinger Equations in "rainbow" approximation with three sets of different parameters for effective gluon propagator. The light quark virtuality is also obtained in a consistent way. Our all theoretical results here are in good agreement with the empirical values used widely in literature and many other theoretical calculations.     

High-precision nonperturbative QCD

Recent advances in lattice QCD have resulted in the first simulations with realistic quark vacuum polarization. Consequently a wide variety of high-precision (few percent) nonperturbative calculations are possible now. This paper reviews the recent developments that make this possible, and presents early evidence that the era of high-precision nonperturbative QCD is at hand. It also discusses the future impact of lattice QCD on experiments, and particularly for heavy-quark physics.     

关于软玻密子的结构

本文修改了Landshoff-Nachtmann的软玻密子(Pomeron P)场论模型.从强子组分夸克具有结构的观点出发,根据高能强作用软过程中的最大非微扰强作用反应假定,提出了有关软P新的结构图像.对撞强子中的一对组分夸克被分解为裸夸克和一系列非微扰胶子(和夸克对).与此相应,软P的结构是由胶子形成的一系列切割梯形图之和所代表.在系统能量s很大而动量转移|t|很小的多重雷吉(Regge)运动学区间,并在保留lns的领头阶近似下,计算了这组切割梯形图之和所对应的散射振幅和总截面.它们的表达式出现了对s的Regge型幂次因子,得出了软P轨迹的简洁表达式.简单说明了按本文提出的方案可以讨论那些相关的强作用过程.     

Gribov ambiguity in gauge theories

Gribov ambiguity in gauge field theories is discussed and it is shown that such an ambiguity exists even for Abelian theories in covariant gauge at finite temperature. Both geometric and algebraic proofs are presented. In view of the importance of non-perturbative methods, some special gauges are given in which such ambiguities do not exist or are not relevant. The significance of these in the study of confinement in QCD is pointed out.     

Hadron interactions in lattice QCD

Progress on the potential method, recently proposed to investigate hadron interactions in lattice QCD, is reviewed. The strategy to extract the potential in lattice QCD is explained in detail. The method is applied to extract NN potentials, hyperon potentials and the meson–baryon potentials. A theoretical investigation is made to understand the origin of the repulsive core using the operator product expansion. Some recent extensions of the method are also discussed.
