Strong QCD : from quarks to hadrons nucleon : many body system of quarks, anti-quarks, gluons quarks come in 3 color charges dynamics : non-abelian gauge theory ( QCD ) ’independent’ nucleon motion in nuclei ( BE ≈ 1 % ) collective nuclear behavior QCD phase diagram : quark -gluon plasma
Ia. Some “key” questions in hadron structure research 1) Why can quarks not be isolated (confinement) ? 2) How can we ‘see’ quarks (quark-gluon structure) ? 3) What is the origin of the mass of the hadrons ? 4) Which symmetries govern hadron structure ? Role of effective degrees of freedom : (pion cloud, constituent quarks, flux tube, …)
1) Why can quarks not be isolated ? quarks & gluons are not color confinement : observed as free particles QED electric dipole field + QCD - analogy : behavior when quarks are at short distance behavior when quarks are taken apart vacuum acts as a dual superconductor ( ‘t Hooft, …) electric field lines are trapped (confined) in a flux tube ( Nambu )
Numerical evidence for confinement : potential between quarks lattice QCD simulations with dynamical quarks SU(3)f pure glue mq = ∞ T = 0. 97 Tc mπ = 800 Me. V Tc ≈ 154 ± 8 Me. V mπ = 380 Me. V flux tube QCD string tension Karsch et al. 0. 3 0. 7 r in fm potential is screened string breaking

2) How can one ‘see’ quarks ?
Inclusive Deep Inelastic Scattering of leptons from nucleon x structure functions F 1, F 2 (unpolarized) g 1, g 2 (polarized) Bjorken scaling
How does the nucleon get its spin ? Quark helicity contribution u u d CERN, SLAC, DESY quark spin explains 20– 30 % of nucleon spin * Gluon contribution ΔG HERMES, COMPASS, RHIC Spin p c c X orbital contribution Lq accessible through x 1 x 2 Generalized Parton Distributions (GPD) JLab, HERMES, COMPASS
3) Origin of mass of the nucleon & spectrum of hadrons MASS GAP mu , md ≈ 5 – 10 Me. V, ms ≈ 150 Me. V QCD ground state : large condensates
Nucleon mass : lattice QCD calculations MILC (2001) : domain wall valence quarks, staggered sea ETMC (2008) : dynamical Wilson quarks physical world nucleon mass in a world where the quark mass is zero : MN 0 = 0. 861 – 0. 868 Ge. V ETMC (2008)
3) Origin of mass of the nucleon & spectrum of hadrons spectroscopy : meson ( qq ) baryon (qqq) MASS GAP mu , md ≈ 5 – 10 Me. V, ms ≈ 150 Me. V QCD ground state : large condensates MAMI, ELSA, JLab, … penta-quark ( qqqqq ) MΘ+ = 1. 54 Ge. V ? ? glueball PANDA@FAIR lattice : M 0++ ≈ 1. 5 Ge. V hybrid ( qqg ) e. g. 0+- , 1 -+ q = u, d, s : COMPASS , JLab (12 Ge. V) q = c (ccg) : PANDA@FAIR
QCD: Exotics QCD predicts the existence of exotic mesons Glueballs are mesons without valence quarks “pure gluon” states emblematic of non-Abelian nature of QCD (lattice QCD predicts mass for 0++ around 1. 5 Ge. V) Other exotics involve excitation or vibration of gluons
Glueballs n n Glueballs are “pure gluon” states emblematic of non. Abelian nature of QCD Aim to compute masses of lowest few states of given quantum number Morningstar and Peardon PRD 60, 034509 lattice glueball calculations provide road-map (N. B. r 0 -1 ~ 0. 4 Ge. V)
