Nucleon charges and quark momentum fraction with Nf=2+1 Wilson fermions
Abstract
We present a nucleon structure analysis including local isovector charges as well as twist-2 operator insertions. Computations are performed on CLS ensembles with Nf=2+1 Wilson fermions, covering four values of the lattice spacing and pion masses down to Mπ ≈ 200\,MeV. Several source-sink separations (typically 1.0\,fm to 1.5\,fm) allow us to assess excited-state contaminations. Results on each ensemble are obtained from simultaneous two-state fits including all observables and all available source-sink separations with the mass gap as a free fit parameter. Finally, the chiral, continuum and finite size extrapolation is performed to extract physical results.
