Non-perturbative Methods and Lattice QCD


Book Description

Lattice field theory is the most reliable tool for investigating non-perturbative phenomena in particle physics. It has also become a cross-discipline, overlapping with other physical sciences and computer science. This book covers new developments in the area of algorithms, statistical physics, parallel computers and quantum computation, as well as recent advances concerning the standard model and beyond, the QCD vacuum, the glueball, hadron and quark masses, finite temperature and density, chiral fermions, SUSY, and heavy quark effective theory.










Proceedings of the Workshop on Lepton Scattering, Hadrons and QCD


Book Description

This volume is centered on recent developments in the exploration of hadronic structure through lepton scattering, in the description of hadron physics directly from lattice QCD and non-perturbative QCD models, and in efforts to strengthen the links between these activities. Specific topics that are covered include: parton distribution functions, polarized structure functions, generalized structure functions, nuclear effects, quark-hadron duality, electromagnetic form factors, structure functions and hadron properties from lattice QCD, and QCD models based on the DysonOCoSchwinger equations. Contents: Partonic Structure of Hadrons: Chiral Extrapolation of Lattice Structure Function Calculations (W Detmold); Exclusive Processes at HERMES (N Bianchi); Soft Pion Production Associated with Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (L Mosse); Spin Structure of Hadrons: Polarized Structure Functions in QCD (J Kodaira); Single Spin Asymmetries and Quark Fragmentation (M Anselmino et al.); Perturbative OCo Nonperturbative QCD Transition: Lepton Scattering and Quark-Hadron Duality Studies at Jlab (R Ent); Estimating Low Energy Model Parameters from Deep Inelastic Scattering (L P Hoyt & A I Signal); Form Factors: Physical Hadron Properties from Lattice Data at Large Quark Masses (A W Thomas); Electromagnetic Interactions in Light Front Dynamics (J -F Mathiot); Nucleon Form Factors in the Covariant Diquark-Quark Model (R Alkofer & M Oettel); Hadron Excitations, Confinement and Chiral Symmetry Breaking: Experimental Studies of the Hadron Spectrum (J Napolitano); The Character of Goldstone Bosons (M B Hecht et al.); Deconfining by Winding (R Hofmann); Small- x Physics and Nuclear Medium Effects: Leading Nucleon Production at HERA (G Levman); Nuclear Medium Effects at HERMES (P di Nezza); Physics Motivation for a Polarized Electron-Ion Collider (J M Cameron & J T Londergan); and other papers.

Strong Coupling Gauge Theories In The Lhc Perspective (Scgt 12) - Proceedings Of The Kmi-gcoe Workshop


Book Description

This volume contains contributions which are largely focused on strong coupling gauge theories and the search of theories beyond the standard model, as well as new aspects in hot and dense QCD — particularly in view of the LHC experiments and the lattice studies of conformal fixed point.It contains, among others, many of the latest and important reports on walking technicolor and related subjects in the general context of conformality, discussions of phenomenological implications with the LHC, as well as the theoretical ones through lattice studies. Nonperturbative studies like lattice simulations and stringy/holographic approaches are extensively elaborated in close relation to phenomenological studies. Also, heavy ion experiments at LHC are discussed in such nonperturbative approaches.




Modern Perspectives in Lattice QCD: Quantum Field Theory and High Performance Computing


Book Description

The aim of the book is to familiarize the new generation of PhD students and postdoctoral fellows with the principles and methods of modern lattice field theory, which aims to resolve fundamental, non-perturbative questions about QCD without uncontrolled approximations.




Proceedings of the First Workshop on Quark-Hadron Duality and Transition to PQCD


Book Description

While perturbative QCD methods fully describe experimental results at high energies, and chiral perturbation theory is the low energy effective theory of the strong interactions, a form of duality is observed connecting these two regimes. In these intermediate kinematics, a wide variety of reactions are observed which can be described simultaneously by single particle (quark) scattering, and by exclusive resonance (hadron) scattering. The contributions in this proceedings volume discuss recent and existing results, and aim to foster current and future research, investigating the phenomenon of quark-hadron duality. This unique volume contains research work by scientists from different arenas of hadronic physics, dealing with different manifestations of quark-hadron duality. Contents: Introduction and Review: Experimental and Theoretical Status: Duality in the Polarized Structure Functions (H Blok); Spin Structure of the Nucleon and Aspects of Duality (Z E Meziani); Duality and Confinement: Quark Models of Duality in Electron and Neutrino Scattering (W Melnitchouk); Hadron Structure on the Back of an Envelope (A Thomas); Spin-Flavor Decomposition and Duality in Polarized SIDIS (X Jiang); Hadron Structure on the Back of an Envelope (A Thomas); Duality in Photoproduction: Duality in Vector Meson Production (A Donnachie); Onsef of Scaling in Exclusive Processes (M Mirazita); Duality in Nuclei: A Partonic Picture of Jet Fragmentation in Nuclei (X-N Wang); Quark Gluon Plasma and Hadronic Gas on the Lattice (M P Lombardo); Duality in Neutrino Experiments: Neutrinos: Local Duality and Charge Symmetry Violation (F Steffens); Duality and QCD: Higher Twist Effects in Polarized DIS (D Stamenov); Quark-Hadron Duality and High Excitations (M Shifman); Highly Excited Hadrons in QCD and Beyond (M Shifman); Future Perspectives: Transverse Polarization and Quark-Hadron Duality (O Teryaev); Research Perspectives with the Jefferson Lab (K de Jager); Perspectives with PANDA (P Gianotti); Summary Talk (P Hoyer); Transverse Polarization and Quark Gluon Duality (O Teryaev); and other papers.
