Revisiting Roy-Steiner-equation analysis of pion-kaon scattering from lattice QCD data
A comprehensive analysis of $πK\rightarrow πK$ and $ππ\rightarrow K\bar K$ amplitudes at large unphysical pion mass for all important partial waves is presented. A set of crossing-symmetric partial-wave hyperbolic dispersion relations is used to describe lattice QCD data at $m_π=391~$MeV. In the present analysis, the amplitudes for the $S$- and $P$-waves are formulated by combining the constraints of analyticity, unitarity, and crossing symmetry, fulfilling Roy-Steiner-type equations. We u…

Mapping Parton Distributions of Hadrons with Lattice QCD
The strong force which binds hadrons is described by the theory of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). Determining the character and manifestations of QCD is one of the most important and challenging outstanding issues necessary for a comprehensive understanding of the structure of hadrons. Within the context of the QCD parton picture, the parton distribution functions (PDFs) have been remarkably successful in describing a wide variety of processes. However, these PDFs have generally been confined to…
