We propose a method to improve lattice operators composed of Wilson fermions which allows the removal of all corrections of $O(a)$, including those proportional to the quark mass. It requires off-shell improvement of quark fields and…
Some basic concepts are discussed to derive renormalisation factors of local lattice operators relevant to deep inelastic structure functions and to other measurable quantities. These $Z$ factors can be used to relate matrix elements…
