Spatial and Momentum Imaging of the Pion and Kaon
Chao Shi, Kyle Bednar, Ian C. Cloët +1
We determine the leading Fock state light front wave functions (LFWFs) of the pion and kaon via light front projections of the covariant Bethe-Salpeter wave function. Using these L…

Distinguishing Quarks and Gluons in Pion and Kaon PDFs
Kyle D. Bednar, Ian C. Cloët, Peter C. Tandy
The leading-twist parton distribution functions of the pion and kaon are calculated for the first time using a rainbow-ladder truncation of QCD's Dyson-Schwinger equations (DSEs) t…

Nucleon Quark Distribution Functions from the Dyson-Schwinger Equations
Kyle D. Bednar, Ian C. Cloët, Peter C. Tandy
We present results for the nucleon's leading-twist spin-independent valence parton distribution functions obtained from a theoretical framework based on the Dyson-Schwinger equatio…
