Light quark electromagnetic structure of baryons

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2010-03-04 v1

Abstract

Fascinating aspects of the light quark-mass behavior of baryon electromagnetic form factors are highlighted. Using FLIC fermions on 203×4020^3 \times 40 quenched O(a2){\cal O}(a^2)-improved gauge fields, we explore charge radii and magnetic moments at pion masses as light as 300 MeV. Of particular interest is chiral curvature of proton charge radii and magnetic moments, the environmental dependence of strange quark properties in hyperons, and the remarkable signature of quenched chiral-nonanalytic behavior in the magnetic moment of Δ\Delta baryon resonances.
