Previous extrapolations of lattice QCD results for the nucleon mass to the physically relevant region of small quark masses, using chiral effective field theory, are extended and expanded in several directions. A detailed error analysis is performed. An approach with explicit delta(1232) degrees of freedom is compared to a calculation with only pion and nucleon degrees of freedom. The role of the delta(1232) for the low-energy constants of the latter theory is elucidated. The consistency with the chiral perturbation theory analysis of pion-nucleon scattering data is examined. It is demonstrated that this consistency can indeed be achieved if the delta(1232) dominance of the P-wave pion-nucleon low-energy constant c3 is accounted for. Introduction of the delta(1232) as an explicit propagating degree of freedom is not crucial in order to describe the quark-mass dependence of the nucleon mass, in contrast to the situation with spin observables of the nucleon. The dependence on finite lattice volume is shown to yield valuable additional constraints. What emerges is a consistent and stable extrapolation scheme for pion masses below 0.6 GeV.
We report the first Lattice QCD calculation using the almost physical pion mass mpi=149 MeV that agrees with experiment for four fundamental isovector observables characterizing the gross structure of the nucleon: the Dirac and Pauli radii, the magne
On the basis of the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock method with the nucleon-nucleon forces obtained from lattice QCD simulations, the properties of the medium-heavy doubly-magic nuclei such as 16^O and 40^Ca are investigated. We found that those nuclei are bo
We report a state-of-the-art lattice calculation of the isovector quark transversity distribution of the proton at the physical pion mass. Within the framework of large-momentum effective theory (LaMET), we compute the transversity quasi-distribution
We present lattice QCD calculations of nucleon electromagnetic form factors using pion masses $m_pi$ = 149, 202, and 254 MeV and an action with clover-improved Wilson quarks coupled to smeared gauge fields, as used by the Budapest-Marseille-Wuppertal
We present a comprehensive study of the lowest moments of nucleon generalized parton distributions in N_f=2+1 lattice QCD using domain wall valence quarks and improved staggered sea quarks. Our investigation includes helicity dependent and independen
