Gluon Helicity Delta G from a Universality Class of Operators on a Lattice

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

We show that the total gluon helicity ΔGΔG in a polarized nucleon can be calculated on a Euclidean lattice through a universality class of QCD operators that describe the helicity or polarization of the onshell gluon radiation. We in particular find some operators whose matrix elements in a nucleon of momentum PzP^z are directly related to ΔGΔG with only power-law (1/Pz)n(n≥2)(1/P^z)^n (n\ge 2) corrections.
