A lattice calculation of the pi-N sigma term is described using dynamical staggered fermions. Preliminary results give a sea term comparable in magnitude to the valence term.
We calculate both connected and disconnected contribution to the $\pi$-$N$ $\sigma$-term in quenched lattice QCD with Wilson quark action on a $12^3\times 20$ lattice at $\beta=5.7$. The latter is evaluated with the aid of the variant wall…
We calculate the nucleon sigma term in two-flavor lattice QCD utilizing the Feynman-Hellman theorem. Both sea and valence quarks are described by the overlap fermion formulation, which preserves exact chiral and flavor symmetries on the…
We present technical details of an analysis of pseudo-scalar data from a QCD simulation with staggered fermions. The data were obtained close to the physical point with an inverse lattice spacing of about 3 GeV, and $N_f=2+1+1$. We compare…
The pion-nucleon $\sigma$-term can be stringently constrained by the combination of analyticity, unitarity, and crossing symmetry with phenomenological information on the pion-nucleon scattering lengths. Recently, lattice calculations at…
It has proven a significant challenge to experiment and phenomenology to extract precise values of the nucleon sigma terms. This difficulty opens the window for lattice QCD simulations to lead the field in resolving this aspect of nucleon…
We present a calculation of the nucleon sigma term on two-flavor QCD configurations with dynamical overlap fermions. We analyse the lattice data for the nucleon mass using the baryon chiral perturbation theory. Using partially quenched data…
We present a lattice-QCD based analysis of the nucleon sigma terms using gauge ensembles with $N_f = 2 + 1$ flavors of ${\cal O}(a)$-improved Wilson fermions, with a complete error budget concerning excited-state contaminations, the chiral…
Many results from lattice QCD of broad importance to particle and nuclear physics are obtained with 2+1 flavors of staggered sea quarks. In the continuum limit, staggered fermions yield four species, called tastes. To reduce the number of…
We calculate connected and disconnected contributions to the flavour singlet scalar density amplitude of the nucleon in a full QCD lattice simulation with $n_f=2$ dynamical Wilson fermions at $\beta=5.6$ on a $16^3 \times 32$ lattice. We…
Lattice QCD calculations with chiral fermions of the $\pi$N sigma term $\sigma_{\pi N}$ and strangeness sigma term $\sigma_{sN}$ including chiral interpolation with continuum and volume corrections are provided in this work, with the…
In this work we present lattice calculations of the masses of P-wave mesons using Monte Carlo simulations. Our valence fermions are defined by the Wilson action. Our gauge fields are generated with both dynamical staggered fermions at a…
We report on a lattice QCD calculation of the I=2 $\pi\pi$ scattering length using the overlap fermion formulation for both sea and valence quarks. We investigate the consistency of the lattice data with the prediction of the…
We present recent results of SESAM's large scale lattice simulation of QCD with two dynamical flavours of Wilson fermions. The emphasis is on future prospects in the extraction of flavour-singlet matrix elements, i.e the pi-nucleon sigma…
We present the results of a mixed action approach, employing dynamical twisted mass fermions in the sea sector and overlap valence fermions, with the aim of testing the continuum limit scaling behaviour of physical quantities, taking the…
We present an analysis of the pion-nucleon $\sigma$-term, $\sigma_{\pi N}$, using six ensembles with 2+1+1-flavor highly improved staggered quark action generated by the MILC collaboration. The most serious systematic effect in lattice…
We study lattice fermions from the viewpoint of spectral graph theory (SGT). We find that a fermion defined on a certain lattice is identified as a spectral graph. SGT helps us investigate the number of zero eigenvalues of lattice Dirac…
A dependence of the value of the pion-nucleon sigma term on higher partial waves is discussed. Two recent predictions of a high value of sigma term are scrutinezed. It has been concluded that the main reason for obtaining high values of the…
The staggered fermion approach to build models with chiral fermions is briefly reviewed. The method is tested in a U(1) model with axial vector coupling in two and four dimensions.
We report on a lattice QCD calculation of the $\pi N \sigma$ term, the scalar form factor, and $\langle N|\bar{s}s|N\rangle$. The disconnected insertion part of $\sg$ is found to be $1.8 \pm 0.1$ times larger than the connected insertion…
