Description

Quantifying the structure of mesons in terms of their fundamental constituents is a major goal of hadron research. In the last decades extensive progress has been made in the calculation of quark structure, however very little is understood about the gluonic equivalent. One way of quantifying how quarks and gluons make up mesons is via the generalized parton distribution functions (GPDs). This poster presents recent results on the gluon moments of GPDs for different mesons, calculated on lattices of 0.12 fm spacing.
