High statistics results for the isovector momentum fraction, $langle x rangle_{u-d}$, helicity moment, $langle x rangle_{Delta u-Delta d}$, and the transversity moment, $langle xrangle_{delta u-delta d}$, of the nucleon are presented using seven ensembles of gauge configurations generated by the JLab/W&M/LANL/MIT collaborations using $2+1$-flavors of dynamical Wilson-clover quarks. Attention is given to understanding and controlling the contributions of excited states. The final results are obtained using a simultaneous fit in the lattice spacing $a$, pion mass $M_pi$ and the finite volume parameter $M_pi L$ keeping leading order corrections. The data show no significant dependence on the lattice spacing and some evidence for finite-volume corrections. The main variation is with $M_pi$, whose magnitude depends on the mass gap of the first excited state used in the analysis. Our final results, in the $overline{rm MS}$ scheme at 2 GeV, are $langle x rangle_{u-d} = 0.160(16)(20)$, $langle x rangle_{Delta u-Delta d} = 0.192(13)(20)$ and $langle x rangle_{delta u-delta d} = 0.215(17)(20)$, where the first error is the overall analysis uncertainty assuming excited-state contributions have been removed, and the second is an additional systematic uncertainty due to possible residual excited-state contributions. These results are consistent with other recent lattice calculations and phenomenological global fit values.

We present results on the quark unpolarized, helicity and transversity parton distributions functions of the nucleon. We use the quasi-parton distribution approach within the lattice QCD framework and perform the computation using an ensemble of twisted mass fermions with the strange and charm quark masses tuned to approximately their physical values and light quark masses giving pion mass of 260 MeV. We use hierarchical probing to evaluate the disconnected quark loops. We discuss identification of ground state dominance, the Fourier transform procedure and convergence with the momentum boost. We find non-zero results for the disconnected isoscalar and strange quark distributions. The determination of the quark parton distribution and in particular the strange quark contributions that are poorly known provide valuable input to the structure of the nucleon.
We present an update on our results of nucleon form factors measured on a large-volume lattice $(8.1rm{fm})^4$ at almost the physical point in 2+1 flavor QCD. The configurations are generated with the stout-smeared $mathcal{O}(a)$ improved Wilson quark action and Iwasaki gauge action at $beta = 1.82$, which corresponds to the lattice spacing of 0.085 fm. The pion mass at the simulation point is about 145 MeV. We determine the iso- vector electric radius and magnetic moment from nucleon electric ($G_E$) and magnetic ($G_M$) form factors. We also report on preliminary results of the axial-vector ($F_A$), induced pseudo-scalar ($F_P$) and pseudo-scalar ($G_P$) form factors in order to verify the axial Ward- Takahashi identity in terms of the nucleon matrix elements, which may be called as the generalized Goldberger-Treiman relation.
We present results on the axial, scalar and tensor isovector-couplings of the nucleon from 2+1 flavor lattice QCD with physical light quarks ($m_pi$ = 135 MeV) in large spatial volume of (10.8 fm)$^3$. The calculations are carried out with the PACS10 gauge configurations generated by the PACS Collaboration with the stout-smeared $mathcal{O}(a)$ improved Wilson fermions and Iwasaki gauge action at $beta=1.82$ corresponding to the lattice spacing of 0.084 fm. For the renormalization, we use the RI/SMOM scheme, a variant of Rome-Southampton RI/MOM scheme with reduced systematic errors, as the intermediate scheme. We then evaluate our final results in the $overline{rm MS}$ scheme at a scale of 2 GeV, using the continuum perturbation theory for the matching scale of RI/SMOM and $overline{rm MS}$ schemes and running.
Nucleon-structure calculations of isovector vector- and axialvector-current form factors, transversity and scalar charge, and quark momentum and helicity fractions are reported from two recent 2+1-flavor dynamical domain-wall fermions lattice-QCD ensembles generated jointly by the RIKEN-BNL-Columbia and UKQCD Collaborations with Iwasaki $times$ dislocation-suppressing-determinatn-ratio gauge action at inverse lattice spacing of 1.378(7) GeV and pion mass values of 249.4(3) and 172.3(3) MeV.
We present high-statistics results for the isovector and flavor diagonal charges of the proton using 11 ensembles of 2+1+1 flavor HISQ fermions. In the isospin symmetric limit, results for the neutron are given by the $u leftrightarrow d$ interchange. A chiral-continuum fit with leading order corrections was made to extract the connected and disconnected contributions in the continuum limit and at $M_pi=135$ MeV. All results are given in the $overline{MS}$ scheme at 2 GeV. The isovector charges, $g_A^{u-d} = 1.218(25)(30)$, $g_S^{u-d} = 1.022(80)(60) $ and $g_T^{u-d} = 0.989(32)(10)$, are used to obtain low-energy constraints on novel scalar and tensor interactions, $epsilon_{S}$ and $epsilon_{T}$, at the TeV scale. The flavor diagonal axial charges are: $g_A^u equiv Delta u equiv langle 1 rangle_{Delta u^+} = 0.777(25)(30)$, $g_A^d equiv Delta d equiv langle 1 rangle_{Delta d^+} = -0.438(18)(30)$, and $g_A^s equiv Delta s equiv langle 1 rangle_{Delta s^+} = -0.053(8)$. Their sum gives the total quark contribution to the proton spin, $sum_{q=u,d,s} (frac{1}{2} Delta q) = 0.143(31)(36)$. This result is in good agreement with the recent COMPASS analysis $0.13 < frac{1}{2} Delta Sigma < 0.18$. Implications of results for the flavor diagonal tensor charges, $g_T^u = 0.784(28)(10)$, $g_T^d = -0.204(11)(10)$ and $g_T^s = -0.0027(16)$ for constraining the quark electric dipole moments and their contributions to the neutron electric dipole moment are discussed. These flavor diagonal charges also give the strength of the interaction of dark matter with nucleons via axial and tensor mediators.
