Moments of Parton Distributions Functions from Lattice QCD at the Physical Point
Abstract
We present a Lattice QCD calculation of the second Mellin moments of the nucleon axial, vector and tensor parton distribution functions (PDFs). The calculation is performed at the physical pion mass with two different lattice spacings, and includes both zero and non-zero nucleon momenta. In our preliminary analysis, we identify operators that greatly reduce excited-state contamination.
