In this talk we highlight recent lattice calculations of the nucleon form factors and structure functions.
We calculate the nucleon axial form factor up to the leading one-loop order in a covariant chiral effective field theory with the $\Delta(1232)$ resonance as an explicit degree of freedom. We fit the axial form factor to the latest lattice…
Nuclear matrix elements (NMEs) for neutrinoless double-beta ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decay in candidate nuclei play a crucial role in interpreting results from current experiments and in designing future ones. Accurate NME values serve as…
Protons and neutrons have a rich structure in terms of their constituents, the quarks and gluons. Understanding this structure requires solving Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). However QCD is extremely complicated, so we must numerically solve…
This thesis presents the setup and results of numerical calculation of hadronic matrix elements of Delta S=1 weak operators, with the aim of studying the Delta I=1/2 rule and direct CP violation. Such study provides a useful comparison of…
The calculations of nuclear matrix elements of $0\nu\beta\beta$-decay is a challenge for nuclear physics. We are discussing here a model independent method, which could allow to test the calculations. The method is based on the…
Lattice QCD with background magnetic fields is used to calculate the magnetic moments and magnetic polarizabilities of the nucleons and of light nuclei with $A\le4$, along with the cross-section for the $M1$ transition $np\rightarrow…
This talk presents results of weak matrix elements calculated from simulations done on 170 $32^3 \times 64$ lattices at $\beta = 6.0$ using quenched Wilson fermions. We discuss the extraction of pseudoscalar decay constants $f_\pi$, $f_K$,…
Lattice QCD (LQCD) calculations predict that chiral symmetry is restored in a smooth crossover transition between a quark-gluon plasma and a hadron resonance gas (HRG) at vanishing net-baryon density, a condition realized in heavy-ion…
We extract the matrix elements of four quark operators O_{L,S} relevant to the B_s and \bar B_s life time difference from QCD sum rules. We find the vacuum saturation approximation works reasonably well, i.e., within 10%. We discuss the…
This is a review of recent developments in hadron structure within the framework of Lattice QCD. The main focus is on recent achievements in the evaluation of nucleon quantities, such as the axial charge, electromagnetic form factors, the…
Complete flavour decompositions of the scalar, axial and tensor charges of the proton, deuteron, diproton and $^3$He at SU(3)-symmetric values of the quark masses corresponding to a pion mass $m_\pi\sim806$ MeV are determined using lattice…
We will discuss several new results from the NPLQCD Collaboration that combine lattice QCD results on (hyper)nuclear systems at unphysical pion masses together with nuclear effective field theories. Two-baryon channels with strangeness $0$…
We present lattice QCD calculations of nucleon electromagnetic form factors using pion masses $m_\pi$ = 149, 202, and 254 MeV and an action with clover-improved Wilson quarks coupled to smeared gauge fields, as used by the…
We derive the relations necessary for the extraction of matrix elements of multi-hadron systems from finite-volume QCD calculations. We focus on systems of $n \ge 2$ weakly interacting identical particles without spin. These results will be…
We present a high-statistics calculation of nucleon electromagnetic form factors in $N_f=2+1$ lattice QCD using domain wall quarks on fine lattices, to attain a new level of precision in systematic and statistical errors. Our calculations…
We review the calculation of moments of both the polarized and unpolarized parton distribution functions of the nucleon in lattice QCD, and in particular their extrapolation to the physical region. We also discuss the reconstruction of the…
We present a non-perturbative computation of inclusive rates of semileptonic decays of heavy mesons from lattice QCD simulations. The calculation is based on the extraction of smeared spectral functions obtained from four-point Euclidean…
Flagship neutrino oscillation experiments depend on precise and accurate theoretical knowledge of neutrino-nucleon cross sections across a variety of energies and interaction mechanisms. Key ingredients to the amplitudes that make up these…
A framework for quantum simulations of real-time weak decays of hadrons and nuclei in a 2-flavor lattice theory in one spatial dimension is presented. A single generation of the Standard Model is found to require 16 qubits per spatial…
