Hadron wave functions and the issue of nucleon deformation

Nuclear Theory 2009-11-07 v2 High Energy Physics - Lattice

Abstract

Using gauge invariant hadronic two- and three- density correlators we extract information on the spatial distributions of quarks in hadrons, and on hadron shape and multipole moments within quenched lattice QCD. Combined with the calculation of N to Delta transition amplitudes the issue of nucleon deformation can be addressed.
