Abstract

In this work we present preliminary results on the nucleon axial and tensor charges, the quark momentum fraction and the first moment of the helicity distribution. The simulations have been performed using two Nf=2N_f{=}2 and Nf=2+1+1N_f{=}2{+}1{+}1 ensembles. Both ensembles have a twisted mass action with a clover term with the quark masses fixed at their physical values (physical point) and volumes of 643×12864^3{\times}128. The extracted quantities are compared with results from an existing Nf=2N_f{=}2 (483×9648^3{\times}96) ensemble. This comparison allows one to address volume and quenching effects.
