Insights into Meson and Baryon Structure using Continuum Schwinger Function Methods

Daniele Binosi, Craig D. Roberts, Zhao-Qian Yao

The bulk of visible mass is supposed to emerge from nonperturbative dynamics within quantum chromodynamics (QCD). Following years of development and refinement, continuum and latti…

Orbital angular momentum in the pion and kaon: rest-frame and light-front

Y. -Y. Xiao, Z. -N. Xu, Z. -Q. Yao +2

Orbital angular momentum (OAM) is not a Poincaré invariant quantity; so, its value is observer dependent. Notwithstanding that, in quantum chromodynamics, a Poincaré-invariant theo…

Light-Front Transverse Nucleon Charge and Magnetisation Densities

Z. -N. Xu, Z. -Q. Yao, P. Cheng +3

Nucleon elastic electromagnetic form factors obtained using both the three-body and quark + fully-interacting-diquark pictures of nucleon structure are employed to calculate an arr…

Developing predictions for pion fragmentation functions

H. -Y. Xing, Z. -Q. Yao, B. -L. Li +3

Exploiting crossing symmetry, the hadron scale pion valence quark distribution function is used to predict the kindred elementary valence quark fragmentation function (FF). This fu…
