Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In order to make reliable predictions with controlled uncertainties for a wide range of nuclear phenomena, a theoretical bottom-up approach, by which hadrons emerge from the underlying theory of strong interactions, quantum chromodynamics (QCD), is desired. The strongly interacting quarks and gluons at low energies are responsible for all the dynamics of nucleons and their clusters, the nuclei. The theoretical framework and the combination of analytical and numerical tools used to carry out a rigorous non-perturbative study of these systems from QCD is called lattice QCD. The result of a lattice QCD calculation corresponds to that of nature only in the limit when the volume of the spacetime is taken to infinity and the spacing between discretized points on the lattice is taken to zero. A better understanding of these discretization and volume effects, not only provides the connection to the infinite-volume continuum observables, but also leads to optimized calculations that can be performed with available computational resources. This thesis includes various formal developments in this direction, along with proposals for novel improvements, to be used in the upcoming LQCD studies of nuclear and hadronic systems. As the space(time) is discretized on a (hyper)cubic lattice in (most of) lattice QCD calculations, the lattice correlation functions are not fully rotationally invariant. This is known to lead to mixing between operators (those interpolating the states or inserting external currents) of higher dimensions with those of lower dimensions where the coefficients of latter diverge with powers of inverse lattice spacing, a, as the continuum limit is approached. This issue has long posed computational challenges in lattice spectroscopy of higher spin states, as well as in the lattice extractions of higher moments of hadron structure functions. We have shown, through analytical perturbative investigations of field theories, including QCD, on the lattice that a novel choice of operators, smeared over several lattice sites and deduced from a continuum angular momentum, has a smooth continuum limit. The scaling of the lower dimensional operators is proven to be no worse than a squared, explaining the success of recent numerical studies of excited state spectroscopy of hadrons with similar choices of operators. These results are presented in chapter 2 of this thesis. Due to Euclidean nature of lattice correlation function, the physical scattering parameters must be obtained via an analytical continuation to Minkowski spacetime. However, this continuation is practically impossible in the infinite-volume limit of lattice correlation function except at the kinematic thresholds. A formalism due to Luscher overcomes this issue by making the connection between the finite-volume spectrum of two interacting particles and their infinite-volume scattering phase shifts. We have extended the Luscher methodology, using an effective field theory approach, to the two-nucleon systems with arbitrary spin, parity and total momentum (in the limit of exact isospin symmetry) and have studied its application to the deuteron system, the lightest bound states of the nucleons, by careful analysis of the finite-volume symmetries. A proposal is presented that enables future precision lattice QCD extraction of the small D/S ratio of the deuteron that is known to be due to the action of non-central forces. By investigating another scenario, we show how significant volume improvement can be achieved in the masses of nucleons and in the binding energy of the deuteron with certain choices of boundary conditions in a lattice QCD calculation of these quantities. These results are discussed in chapters 3, 4 and 5. In order to account for electromagnetic effects in hadronic systems, lattice QCD calculations have started to include quantum electrodynamic (QED). These effects are particularly interesting in studies of mass splittings between charged and neutral members of isospin multiplets, e.g. neutral and charged pions. Due to the infinite range of QED interactions large volume effects plaque these studies. Using a non-relativistic effective theory for electromagnetic interactions of hadrons, we analytically calculate, and numerically estimate, the first few finite-volume corrections (up to 1 over L to the 4th power where L is the spatial extent of the volume) to the masses of hadrons and nuclei at leading order in the QED coupling constant, but to all orders in the short-distance strong interaction effects. These results are presented in chapter 6.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Particle and nuclear physicists frequently take results from Lattice QCD at their face value without probing into their reliability or sophistication. This attitude usually stems from a lack of knowledge of the field. The aim of the present volume is to rectify this by introducing in an elementary way several topics, which we believe are appropriate for, and of possible interest to, both particle and nuclear physicists who are non-experts in the field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum chromodynamics is generally accepted to be the quantum field theory which describes the strong interactions in elementary particle physics. However, the question of the mechanism responsible for the “confinement” of the color degrees of freedom of quarks and gluons into hadrons still ranks as one of the most interesting open problems in physics.This proceedings volume summarizes the state of the art in this area of research. Mathematically inclined readers will find the articles based on monopoles, vortices, and topology most interesting. Meanwhile, lattice calculations can be performed for many important physical quantities. Their results can be used as guidelines for developing models of quark confinement. These models are indispensable for theoretical physicists performing calculations with the Bethe-Salpeter equation, Dyson-Schwinger equations, effective Hamiltonians, and potential models. The cross-fertilization of all these subfields of research becomes evident from the articles in this book. A few experimental papers are also included.

Download or read book Lattice Hadron Physics written by Alex Kalloniatis and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-05-20 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lattice Hadron Physics draws upon the developments made in recent years in implementing chirality on the lattice via the overlap formalism. These developments exploit chiral effective field theory in order to extrapolate lattice results to physical quark masses, new forms of improving operators to remove lattice artefacts, analytical studies of finite-volume effects in hadronic observables, and state-of-the-art lattice calculations of excited resonances. This volume, comprised of selected lectures, is designed to assist those outside the field who want quickly to become literate in these topics. As such, it provides graduate students and experienced researchers in other areas of hadronic physics with the background through which they can appreciate, if not become active in, contemporary lattice-gauge theory and its applications to hadronic phenomena.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The confinement mechanism of the quarks in QCD is one of the most challenging and open problems in physics. Confinement is a nonperturbative phenomenon, and a definite way to handle it has not yet been found in field theory. There are lattice calculations that can produce the low-lying states of the spectrum and ?measure? many important physical quantities, but nevertheless the development of analytical techniques is of extreme importance for understanding the physics involved in confinement. In this respect it is important to test the results obtained directly from the theory (Bethe-Salpeter kernel, effective Hamiltonians, quark potential, etc.) on the spectrum, form factors and decays of bound states of quarks and gluons, and to relate them to the results of lattice theory.In this book, the question of the confinement mechanism is addressed; explanations in terms of monopoles, instantons and dyons are reviewed and the connection with duality is discussed.
