Lepton scattering is an established ideal tool for studying inner structure of small particles
such as nucleons as well as nuclei. As a future high energy nuclear physics project, an …

Insights into the emergence of mass from studies of pion and kaon structure

CD Roberts, DG Richards, T Horn, L Chang - Progress in Particle and …, 2021 - Elsevier
There are two mass generating mechanisms in the standard model of particle physics (SM).
One is related to the Higgs boson and fairly well understood. The other is embedded in …

QCD running couplings and effective charges

A Deur, SJ Brodsky, CD Roberts - Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics, 2023 - Elsevier
We discuss our present knowledge of α s, the fundamental running coupling or effective
charge of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). A precise understanding of the running of α s …

Emergence of hadron mass and structure

M Ding, CD Roberts, SM Schmidt - Particles, 2023 - mdpi.com
Visible matter is characterised by a single mass scale; namely, the proton mass. The
proton's existence and structure are supposed to be described by quantum chromodynamics …

Revealing the structure of light pseudoscalar mesons at the electron–ion collider

J Arrington, CA Gayoso, PC Barry… - Journal of Physics G …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
The questions of how the bulk of the Universe's visible mass emerges and how it is manifest
in the existence and properties of hadrons are profound, and probe the heart of strongly …

Gauge sector dynamics in QCD

MN Ferreira, J Papavassiliou - Particles, 2023 - mdpi.com
The dynamics of the QCD gauge sector give rise to non-perturbative phenomena that are
crucial for the internal consistency of the theory; most notably, they account for the …

Global QCD analysis of pion parton distributions with threshold resummation

PC Barry, CR Ji, N Sato, W Melnitchouk… - Physical Review Letters, 2021 - APS
We perform the first global QCD analysis of pion valence, sea quark, and gluon distributions
within a Bayesian Monte Carlo framework with threshold resummation on Drell-Yan cross …

Emergent hadron mass in strong dynamics

D Binosi - Few-Body Systems, 2022 - Springer
Abstract Emergent Hadron Mass (EHM) is a mechanism capable of explaining both the
unnaturally small (pion) and large (proton) masses of hadrons and if not the origin of …

Empirical consequences of emergent mass

CD Roberts - Symmetry, 2020 - mdpi.com
The Lagrangian that defines quantum chromodynamics (QCD), the strong interaction piece
of the Standard Model, appears very simple. Nevertheless, it is responsible for an …

Revealing pion and kaon structure via generalised parton distributions

K Raya, ZF Cui, L Chang, JM Morgado… - Chinese …, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
Clear windows onto emergent hadron mass (EHM) and modulations thereof by Higgs boson
interactions are provided by observable measures of pion and kaon structure, many of which …
