Lattice Hadron Physics [electronic resource] / edited by Alex Kalloniatis, Derek Leinweber, Anthony Williams.

Quenching Effects in Lattice Hadron Physics -- Quark Propagator From LQCD and its Physical Implications -- Generalised Spin Projection for Fermion Actions -- Baryon Spectroscopy in Lattice QCD -- Hadron Structure an QCD: Effective Field Theory for Lattice Simulations -- Lattice Chiral Fermions From Continuum Defects -- Strong and Weak Interactions in a Finite Volume -- Hadron Properties With FLIC Fermions.

This series of lectures draws upon the developments made in recent years in implementing chirality on the lattice via the overlap formalism. These developments exploit chiral effective field theory in order to extrapolate lattice results to physical quark masses, new forms of improving operators to remove lattice artefacts, analytical studies of finite volume effects in hadronic observables, and state-of-the-art lattice calculations of excited resonances. This volume is designed to assist those outside the field who want quickly to becoming literate in these topics. So it is intended for graduate students and experienced researchers in other areas of hadronic physics to provide the background through which they can appreciate, if not become active in, contemporary lattice gauge theory and its applications to hadronic phenomena.
