چکیده
We present recent results on generalized parton distributions from dynamical lattice QCD calculations. Our set of twelve different combinations of couplings and quark masses allows for a preliminary study of the pion mass dependence of the transverse nucleon structure.

Generalized parton distributions for the pion in chiral perturbation theory
Generalized parton distributions provide a unified parameterization of hadron structure and allow one to combine information from many different observables. Lattice QCD calculations already provide important input to determine these distributions and hold the promise to become even more important in the future. To this end, a reliable extrapolation of lattice calculations to the physical quark...
متن کاملQuark helicity flip generalized parton distributions from two-flavor lattice QCD
We present an initiatory study of quark helicity flip generalized parton distributions (GPDs) in nf = 2 lattice QCD, based on clover-improved Wilson fermions for a large number of coupling constants and pion masses. Quark helicity flip GPDs yield essential information on the transverse spin structure of the nucleon. In this work, we show first results on their lowest moments and dipole masses a...
متن کاملMoments of Nucleon Generalized Parton Distributions in Lattice QCD
Calculation of moments of generalized parton distributions in lattice QCD requires more powerful techniques than those previously used to calculate moments of structure functions. Hence, we present a novel approach that exploits the full information content from a given lattice configuration by measuring an overdetermined set of lattice observables to provide maximal statistical constraints on ...

This talk presents results from the QCDSF-UKQCD collaboration for moments of leading twist generalized parton distributions in two-flavor lattice QCD based on O(a) improved Wilson Fermions. We study helicity independent and helicity flip GPDs with a focus on densities of quarks in the transverse plane.
متن کاملGeneralized Parton Distributions and the Spin Structure of the Nucleon
Generalized parton distributions are a type of hadronic observables which has recently stimulated great interest among theorists and experimentalists alike. Introduced to delineate the spin structure of the nucleon, the orbital angular momentum of quarks in particular, the new distributions contain vast information about the internal structure of the nucleon, with the usual electromagnetic form...
