      Calculation of the N to Δ electromagnetic transition matrix element 

      Alexandrou, Constantia; de Forcrand, Ph; Lippert, Th; Neff, H.; Negele, J. W.; Schilling, K.; Schroers, W.; Tsapalis, Antonios (2003)
      We present results on the ratio of electric quadrupole to magnetic dipole amplitudes, REM = GE2/GM1, for the transition γN → Δ from lattice QCD. We consider both the quenched and the 2-flavor theory.

      Full QCD with the Lüscher local bosonic action 

      Alexandrou, Constantia; Borrelli, A.; de Forcrand, Ph; Galli, A.; Jegerlehner, F. (1995)
      We investigate Lüscher's method of including dynamical Wilson fermions in a lattice simulation of QCD with two quark flavours. We measure the accuracy of the approximation by comparing it with Hybrid Monte Carlo results ...

      Gauge-invariant two- and three- density correlators 

      Alexandrou, Constantia; de Forcrand, Ph; Tsapalis, Antonios (2003)
      Gauge-invariant spatial correlations between two and three quarks inside a hadron are measured within quenched and unquenched QCD. These correlators provide information on the shape and multipole moments of the pion, the ...

      The ground state of three quarks 

      Alexandrou, Constantia; de Forcrand, Ph; Jahn, O. (2003)
      We measure the static three-quark potential in SU(3) lattice gauge theory with improved accuracy, by using all available technical refinements, including Lüscher-Weisz exponential variance reduction. Together with insight ...

      Hadron wave functions and the issue of nucleon deformation 

      Alexandrou, Constantia; de Forcrand, Ph; Tsapalis, Antonios (2003)
      Using gauge invariant hadronic two- and three- density correlators we extract information on the spatial distributions of quarks in hadrons, and on hadron shape and multipole moments within quenched lattice QCD. Combined ...

      The matter density distribution for mesons and baryons 

      Alexandrou, Constantia; de Forcrand, Ph; Tsapalis, Antonios (2004)
      The matter density distribution inside a hadron is evaluated using gauge-invariant correlation functions within the quenched and the unquenched theory. Comparison with the charge density distribution suggests that hadron ...

      Momentum dependence of the N to Δ transition form factors 

      Alexandrou, Constantia; de Forcrand, Ph; Neff, H.; Negele, J. W.; Schroers, W.; Tsapalis, Antonios (2005)
      We present a new method to determine the momentum dependence of the N to Δ transition form factors and demonstrate its effectiveness in the quenched theory at β = 6.0 on a 323 × 64 lattice. We address a number of technical ...

      Phase structure of one-flavour QCD 

      Alexandrou, Constantia; Boriçi, A.; Feo, A.; de Forcrand, Ph; Galli, A.; Jegerlehner, F.; Takaishi, T. (1999)
      We present a study of the deconfinement phase transition of one-flavour QCD, using the multiboson algorithm. The mass of the Wilson fermions relevant for this study is moderately large and the non-Hermitian multiboson ...

      Static three- and four-quark potentials 

      Alexandrou, Constantia; de Forcrand, Ph; Tsapalis, Antonios (2002)
      We present results for the static three- and four- quark potentials in SU(3) and SU(4) respectively. Using a variational approach, combined with multi-hit for the time-like links, we determine the ground state of the ...

      γN → Δ transition form factors in Quenched and NF = 2 QCD 

      Alexandrou, Constantia; de Forcrand, Ph; Lippert, Th; Neff, H.; Negele, J. W.; Schilling, K.; Schroers, W.; Tsapalis, Antonios (2004)
      Calculations of the magnetic dipole, electric quadrupole and Coulomb quadrupole amplitudes for the transition γN → Δ are presented both in quenched QCD and with two flavours of degenerate dynamical quarks. © 2004 Published ...
