      Computation of disconnected contributions to nucleon observables 

      Alexandrou, Constantia; Drach, V.; Jansen, K.; Koutsou, Giannis; Avilés-Casco, A. V. (Proceedings of Science (PoS), 2013)
      We compare several methods for computing disconnected fermion loops contributing to nucleon three-point functions. The comparison is carried out using one ensemble of Nf =2+1+1 twisted mass fermions with pion mass of 373 ...

      Implementation of the twisted mass fermion operator in the QUDA library 

      Strelchenko, A.; Alexandrou, Constantia; Koutsou, Giannis; Avilés-Casco, A. V. (Proceedings of Science (PoS), 2013)
      We discuss an extension of the QUDA library for the Wilson twisted mass operator. A performance analysis is presented for both degenerate and non-degenerate flavor doublets. The degenerate twisted mass fermion operator ...

      Looking at the gluon moment of the nucleon with dynamical twisted mass fermions 

      Alexandrou, Constantia; Drach, V.; Hadjiyiannakou, Kyriakos; Jansen, K.; Kostrzewa, B.; Wiese, C. (Proceedings of Science (PoS), 2013)
      To understand the structure of hadrons it is important to know the PDF of their constituents, the quarks and gluons. In our work we aim to compute the first moment of the gluon PDF h(x)ig for the nucleon. We follow two ...
