The nucleon mass in N_f=2 lattice QCD: finite size effects from chiral perturbation theory

A. Ali Khan, T. Bakeyev, M. Göckeler +8

In the framework of relativistic SU(2)_f baryon chiral perturbation theory we calculate the volume dependence of the nucleon mass up to and including O(p^4). Since the parameters i…
