Nucleon Spin Structures from Lattice QCD: Flavor Singlet Axial and Tensor Charges
Abstract
The flavor singlet axial and tensor charges of the nucleon are calculated in lattice QCD. We find = u+ d+ s=+0.638(54)-0.347(46)-0.109(30) = +0.18(10) for the axial charge and δ=δ u+δ d+δ s=+0.839(60)-0.231(55)-0.046(34) = +0.562(88) for the tensor charge. The result for the axial charge shows reasonable agreement with the experiment and that for the tensor charge is the first prediction from lattice QCD before experimental measurements.
