Multi-particle states with additional pions are expected to be a non-negligible source of excited-state contamination in lattice simulations at the physical point. It is shown that baryon chiral perturbation theory can be employed to…
Techniques to compute hadron properties from lattice QCD rely upon the limit of long time separation. For baryons, the signal-to-noise problem often restricts one to time separations that are not ideally long, and for which couplings to…
We employ chiral perturbation theory to calculate the nucleon-pion-state contribution to the 3-point correlation functions measured in lattice QCD to compute various moments of parton distribution functions (quark momentum fraction,…
The nucleon-pion-state contribution to QCD two-point and three-point functions used in lattice calculations of the nucleon axial form factors are studied in chiral perturbation theory. For small quark masses this contribution is expected to…

The nucleon-pion-state contribution in the QCD 3-point function of the pseudoscalar density is calculated to leading order in chiral perturbation theory. It predicts a nucleon-pion-state contamination in lattice estimates for the…

We employ leading order covariant chiral perturbation theory to compute the nucleon-pion-state contribution to the 3-point correlation functions one typically measures in lattice QCD to extract the isovector nucleon charges $g_A,g_T$ and…

Excited-state contamination is one of the dominant uncertainties in lattice calculations of the nucleon axial-charge, $g_A$. Recently published results in leading-order chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) predict the excited-state…
We consider multi-particle contributions to nucleon two- and three-point functions from the perspective of chiral dynamics. Lattice nucleon interpolating operators, which have definite chiral transformation properties, can be mapped into…
Multi-particle states with additional pions are expected to result in a difficult-to-control excited-state contamination in lattice simulations. We show that heavy meson chiral perturbation theory can be employed to estimate the…
We consider corrections to nucleon correlation functions arising from times that are far from the asymptotic limit. For such times, the single nucleon state is contaminated by the pion-nucleon and pion-delta continuum. We use heavy baryon…
Nucleon weak matrix elements can be extracted from nucleon correlation functions with lattice QCD simulations. The signal-to-noise ratio prohibits the analysis at large source-sink separations and as a consequence, excited state…
Using Heavy Meson Chiral Perturbation Theory (HMChPT), the $B^* \pi$ excited states contamination of the $B \to \pi$ vector form factors is computed to NLO in the chiral expansion and in the static limit. The results suggest that the…
We summarize recent evidence, both from lattice QCD and chiral perturbation theory, that suggests that larger-than-expected excited-state contamination could be the reason for the tension between phenomenological determinations and previous…
Heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory ($\chi$PT), where the $\Delta$ resonance is included, is used in order to examine the axial charged-current component of the weak interaction process at low neutrino energies. At leading chiral order…
The exponentially falling signal-to-noise ratio in all nucleon correlation functions, and the presence of towers of multihadron excited states with relatively small mass gaps makes extraction of matrix elements of various operators within…
