Summary: In this study, the infinite volume reconstruction method is used to calculate the mass difference between charged and neutral pions. The hadronic tensor is computed using lattice QCD and combined with an analytic photon propagator. By performing a continuum extrapolation and examining finite-volume effects, the calculated pion mass splitting is found to agree well with experimental measurements.

Summary: This study presents the first lattice QCD calculation of the distribution amplitudes of longitudinally and transversely polarized vector mesons K* and phi using large momentum effective theory. The results show that while the longitudinal distribution amplitudes tend to be close to the asymptotic form, the transverse ones deviate rather significantly from the asymptotic form. The final results provide crucial ab initio theory inputs for analyzing pertinent exclusive processes.

Summary: This study introduces complete next-to-next-to-leading-order coefficient functions to match flavor nonsinglct quark correlation functions in position space to parton distribution functions (PDFs), making predictions for valence-quark correlation functions. By performing Fourier transformation, matching coefficients for corresponding quasi-PDFs and pseudo-PDFs are obtained. The calculations can be generalized to evaluate matching coefficients for sea-quark and gluon correlation functions.

Summary: This study presents the first exploration of baryon-baryon interactions in the continuum limit of lattice QCD, revealing unexpectedly large lattice artifacts impacting the binding energy. By applying variational methods and Luscher's finite-volume quantization conditions, scattering phase shifts can be determined from the spectrum, leading to an estimate of the binding energy of the H dibaryon in three-flavor QCD.

Summary: The study derives the dependence of the leading-twist pion light-cone distribution amplitude on a parton momentum fraction x by solving the dispersion relations for the moments. The results are convergent and stable in the Gegenbauer expansion, and can be further improved systematically by including higher-order and higher-power terms in the operator product expansion.

Summary: Recent estimates suggest that the strong isospin-symmetry breaking (ISB) corrections to the Fermi matrix element in free neutron decay may be one order of magnitude larger than the naive estimate based on a theorem. To investigate this claim, we derive a general expression for the leading ISB correction to hadronic Fermi matrix elements, which can be computed from first principles. Our formalism opens up the possibility of determining this correction in the neutron sector with fully-controlled theory uncertainties.

Summary: Based on the analysis of the contributions from connected and disconnected contraction diagrams in the pion-kaon scattering amplitude, this study provides the first determination of a free low-energy constant L-0(r) in SU (4 vertical bar 1) Partially-Quenched Chiral Perturbation theory. The determination is obtained using data from the Extended Twisted Mass collaboration, and the uncertainties are derived from various theoretical and experimental factors.

Summary: We study the phase structure of isospin asymmetric matter at zero temperature using the two-flavor Linear Sigma Model with quarks. The mean field chiral and isospin condensates are provided by meson degrees of freedom, and the effective potential is computed by accounting for constituent quark fluctuations at one-loop order. The results show that the model can effectively describe the evolution of condensates as well as the pressure, energy, isospin densities, and sound velocity as a function of the isospin chemical potential.

Summary: In the context of the random instanton vacuum (RIV), the pion and kaon distribution amplitudes up to twist-3 were discussed. Quasipion and quasikaon distributions were explicitly constructed in the RIV, and analyzed at leading order in the diluteness factor. The distribution amplitudes were obtained from the large momentum limit, and the higher resolution results were discussed using QCD evolution and compared to asymptotic limits and lattice results.

Summary: In this paper, the pion leading-twist distribution amplitude (DA) phi(2;pi)(x, mu) was studied by improving the traditional light-cone harmonic oscillator model. The model parameters were constrained by calculating its moments in the framework of the QCD background field theory. The resulting behavior of the twist-2 pion DA is closer to the AdS/QCD and lattice results, but narrower than that obtained using the Dyson-Schwinger equation.

Summary: We determined the nonsinglet transversity parton distribution function (PDF) of the nucleon using lattice quantum chromodynamics. By analyzing the short-distance behavior and using the matching coefficients, we extracted the transversity PDF and studied its x-dependence through an expansion in Jacobi polynomials. Comparing our estimate with global fit results based on single transverse spin asymmetry, we found that the nucleon sea is isospin symmetric with respect to transversity.

Summary: In this study, continuum limit results for the unpolarized parton distribution function of the nucleon in lattice QCD are presented. The pseudo-PDF approach with Short Distance Factorization was utilized for the first time, and findings were compared with phenomenological determinations. The sGEVP technique was employed to optimize control over excited state contamination in calculations.

Summary: A quark target model incorporating intrinsic glue into effective low-energy QCD models is constructed to ensure gauge invariance of observables. Comparing covariant and light cone gauges reveals the importance of Wilson line contributions in covariant gauges. Ultimately, this research highlights the significance of accounting for Wilson line contributions in quantum correlation function calculations in covariant gauges.

Summary: This study presents a calculation of the pion and kaon Mellin moments extracted directly in lattice QCD using a three-derivative local operator. The results are converted to the MS scheme and evolved at a scale of 2 GeV with three-loop expressions in perturbation theory. Excited states contamination is evaluated to determine the systematic error and additional analyses are performed to reconstruct the x-dependence of the pion and kaon PDFs.

Summary: In this study, the leading-twist helicity-dependent generalized parton distributions of the proton were calculated using the NJL model in QCD, leading to the determination of the proton's spin decomposition. The inclusion of multiple species of diquarks was found to significantly impact the flavor decomposition, emphasizing the importance of understanding the internal structure of these dynamical diquark correlations for the mechanical stability of the proton. The results revealed the intrinsic spin and orbital angular momentum of up and down quarks, as well as the total angular momentum of gluons, showing that the down quark carries almost no total angular momentum due to cancellations between spin and orbital contributions. Comparisons were made with lattice QCD calculations.
