[Hadstruct] [EXTERNAL] Re: Proposed abstracts for Lattice 2021

Thu Apr 29 14:06:57 EDT 2021

Hey Christo and Colin,

Should you arrange for back to back talks? That would be better…And you should email the organisers to make sure that one of you is going to do the part A and the other the part B….

Best,
Savvas

Preliminary results from a second ensemble at the physical pion mass are also presented. We employ the pseudo-PDF formalism in combination with the distillation method for the first time, yielding a significantly improved statistical accuracy of the computed Ioffe-time distributions (ITDs) and resulting x-dependence  over traditional methods for calculating matrix elements. We elaborate on the perturbative 1-loop evolution of the ITDs as well as a set of PDF parametrization schemes and discuss various systematics. We compare our extracted x-dependence of the nucleon valence PDF with phenomenology and with other recent Lattice QCD evaluations.

The chiral-odd nature of the transversity makes it experimentally harder to extract than unpolarized distributions, thereby making the lattice determination very crucial.  In this talk, we will present results on the lattice computation of the nucleon transversity PDF using the distillation method and by employing the pseudo-distribution approach on an ensemble with the lattice spacing a=0.094 fm and 358 MeV pion mass.

>> Abstract:
>> The pseudo-distribution formalism is one such methodology capable of illuminating the collinear structure of hadrons from matrix elements of suitably constructed space-like operators calculated using lattice QCD. Leveraging the distillation spatial smearing program, we extract the unpolarized isovector valence and plus quark PDFs of the nucleon via a direct 1-loop matching of the computed Ioffe-time pseudo-distribution and PDF parameterizations. The tempering of excited-states and improved volume sampling afforded by distillation lead to high quality Ioffe-time pseudo-distributions and their $\overline{\text{MS}}$ light-cone counterparts. This bolsters confidence in the extracted PDFs, and allows for a rigorous quantitative accounting of lattice systematics. The PDFs we determine are compared with contemporary results from the lattice community and an array of phenomenological determinations.

We give a classification of possible two-gluon correlator functions and identify those that contain the invariant amplitude determining the gluon PDF in the light-cone $z^2\to 0$ limit. One-loop calculations have been performed in the coordinate representation and in an explicitly gauge-invariant form. We made an effort to separate ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) sources of the $\ln \left(-z^2\right) $-dependence at short distances $z^2$. The UV terms cancel in the reduced Ioffe-time distribution (ITD), and we obtain the matching relation between the reduced ITD and the light-cone ITD. Using a kernel form, we get a direct connection between lattice data for the reduced ITD and the normalized gluon PDF.

In this presentation we focus on pseudo-PDFs where the starting point is the equal time hadronic matrix element with the quark and anti-quark fields separated by a finite distance. We focus on Ioffe-time distributions, which are functions of the Ioffe-time ν, and can be understood as the Fourier transforms of parton distribution functions with respect to the momentum fraction variable x. We present lattice results for the case of the nucleon addressing the physical point and continuum extrapolations. We also incorporate our lattice data in the NNPDF framework treating them on the same footing as experimental data and discuss in detail the different sources of systematics in the determination of the non-singlet PDFs.
