Nucleon isovector vector- and axialvector-current form factors, the renormalized isovector transversity and scalar charge, and the bare quark momentum and helicity moments of isovector structure functions are reported with improved statistics from two recent RBC+UKQCD 2+1-flavor dynamical domain-wall fermions ensembles: Iwasaki(times)DSDR gauge (32^3times64) at inverse lattice spacing of 1.38 GeV and pion mass of 249 and 172 MeV.

We report the status of nucleon structure calculations on the (2+1)-flavor dynamical domain-wall fermions ensembles with pion masses as low as 180 and 250 MeV on a lattice with about 4.6 fm spatial extent. A combination of the Iwasaki+dislocation- suppressing-determinant-ratio (I+DSDR) gauge action and DWF fermion action allows us to generate these ensembles at cutoff of about 1.4 GeV while keeping the residual mass small. Nucleon source Gaussian smearing has been optimized. Preliminary nucleon mass estimates are 0.98 and 1.05 GeV.
Domain-wall fermions (DWF) is a lattice discretization for Dirac fields that preserves continuum-like chiral and flavor symmetries that are essential in hadron physics. RIKEN-BNL-Columbia (RBC) and UKQCD Collaborations have been generating sets of realistic 2+1-flavor dynamical lattice quantum chromodynamics (QCD) numerical ensembles with DWF quarks with strange mass set almost exactly at its physical value via reweighing and degenerate up and down mass set as light as practical. In this report the current status of the nucleon-structure calculations using these ensembles are summarized.
The current status of some nucleon isovector observables, the vector charge, (g_V), axial charge, (g_A), quark momentum fraction, (langle x rangle_{u-d}), and quark helicity fraction, (langle x rangle_{Delta u - Delta d}), calculated using recent RBC/UKQCD 2+1-flavor dynamical domain-wall fermions (DWF) lattice QCD ensembles are reported: with Iwasaki gauge action at inverse lattice spacing, (a^{-1}), of about 1.7 GeV, linear lattice extent, (L), of about 2.7 fm, pion mass, (m_pi), of about 420 and 330 MeV, and with Iwasaki(times)DSDR gauge action at (a^{-1}) of about 1.4 GeV, (L) of about 4.6 fm, and (m_pi) of about 250 and 170 MeV. The calculations have been refined with enhanced statistics, in particular through successful application of the all-mode-averaging (AMA) technique for the 170- and 330-MeV ensembles. As a result, the precision agreement seen in the charge ratio, (g_A/g_V), for 420-MeV and 250-MeV ensembles that share the finite-size scaling parameter (m_pi L) of about 5.8 is more significant with new values of 1.17(2) and 1.18(4) respectively. We also studied the dependence on the source-sink separation in the lightest ensemble of 170-MeV, by comparing the cases with the separation of about 1.0 and 1.3 fm and did not see any dependence: contamination from the excited states are well under control in our choice of source and sink smearing. The axial charge, (g_A) and the ratio, (g_A/g_V), shows a long-range autocorrelation that extends the entire range of configurations that were so far analyzed, almost 700 hybrid Molecular Dynamics time, in the lightest ensemble of (m_pi=170) MeV. The other observables do not show any autocorrelation with the interval of 16 trajectories.
From simultaneous fits to the data from the 2+1 flavor DWF ensembles generated by the RBC and UKQCD collaborations at two different lattice spacings, we present preliminary continuum results for light hadrons. We focus on light pseudoscalar decay constants and quark masses. Several approaches to the calculation of the lattice spacing are discussed and the errors associated with the chiral extrapolation are explained. We make use of reweighting in the dynamical strange quark mass such that our ensembles have a self-consistently determined strange quark mass.
We report lattice-volume independence of low moments of nucleon structure functions from the coarse RIKEN-BNL-Columbia (RBC) and UKQCD joint dynamical (2+1)-flavor domain-wall fermions (DWF) ensembles at the lattice cut off of (a^{-1}sim1.7) GeV. The isovector quark momentum fraction, (< x >_{u-d}), and helicity fraction, (< x >_{Delta u - Delta d}), both fully non-perturbatively renormalized are studied on two spatial volumes of ((sim {rm 2.7 fm})^3) and ((sim {rm 1.8 fm})^3). Their naturally renormalized ratio, (< x >_{u-d}/< x >_{Delta u - Delta d}), is not affected by any finite-size effect. It does not depend strongly on light quark mass and does agree well with the experiment. The respective absolute values, fully non-perturbatively renormalized, do not show any finite-size effect either. They show trending toward the respective experimental values at the lightest up- and down-quark mass. This trending down to the experimental values appears to be a real physical effect driven by lighter quarks. The observations are in contrast to the huge finite-size effect seen in the axial-current form factors.
