In these proceedings we discuss recent progress in nucleon structure using lattice QCD simulations at or near the physical value of the pion mass. Main focus will be given in observables such as the nucleon axial charge and the first…
We extend the QCD Parton Model analysis by employing a factorized nuclear structure model that explicitly accounts for both individual nucleons and correlated nucleon pairs. This novel framework establishes a paradigm that directly links…

I introduce a gauge invariant decomposition of the nucleon spin into quark helicity, quark orbital, and gluon contributions. The total quark (and hence the quark orbital) contribution is shown to be measurable through virtual Compton…
This paper gives a pedagogical introduction to our knowledge of the spin structure of the nucleon. In particular, polarised deep inelastic lepton scattering is presented as a tool to study how the nucleon's constituents combine to generate…
I begin with a general discussion about importance of constructing a picture of the nucleon in terms of QCD degrees of freedom, emphasizing the role of spin structure functions. I then give a short overview on the theoretical and…
A simple quark-diquark model for nucleon and $\Lambda$ structure is used to calculate leading twist light-cone fragmentation functions for a quark to inclusively decay into P or $\Lambda$. The parameters of the model are determined by…

We study polarized-spin structure functions of the nucleon within the bosonized Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model where the nucleon emerges as a chiral soliton. We present the electromagnetic polarized structure functions, $g_{1}(x)$ and $g_{2}(x)$…

We study good, bad and not-even-bad diquarks on the lattice in a gauge-invariant formalism in full QCD. We establish their spectral masses with short extrapolations to the physical point, observing agreement with phenomenological…
This review focuses on the discussion of three key results of nucleon structure calculations on the lattice. These three results are the quark contribution to the nucleon spin, J_q, the nucleon-Delta transition form factors, and the nucleon…
Using lattice QCD, a diquark can be studied in a gauge-invariant manner by binding it to a static quark in a heavy-light-light hadron. We compute the simultaneous two-quark density of a diquark, including corrections for periodic boundary…
We report isovector form factors and low moments of isovector structure functions of nucleon from the coarse RIKEN-BNL-Columbia (RBC) and UKQCD joint dynamical (2+1)-flavor domain-wall fermions (DWF) ensembles. The lattice cut off is…
About half the mass of a hadron is given from gluonic contributions. In this talk we calculate the chromo-electric and chromo-magnetic components of the nucleon mass. These computations are numerically difficult due to gluon field…

The isospin asymmetry of the sea quark distribution as well as the unexpectedly small quark spin fraction of the nucleon are two outstanding discoveries recently made in the physics of deep-inelastic structure functions. We evaluate here…
We study the quenched chiral behavior of hadrons with the pseudoscalar mass as low as $\approx 280$ MeV. We look for quenched chiral logs in the pion mass, determine the renormalized quark mass, and observe quenched artifacts in the $a_0$…
