Baryon Axial Charges and Momentum Fractions with N_f=2+1 Dynamical Fermions

Understand

We report on recent results of the QCDSF/UKQCD Collaboration on investigations of baryon structure using configurations generated with N_f=2+1 dynamical flavours of O(a) improved Wilson fermions.

• With the strange quark mass as an additional dynamical degree of freedom in our simulations we avoid the need for a partially quenched approximation when investigating the properties of particles containing a strange quark, e.g.
• the hyperons.
• In particular, we will focus on the nucleon and hyperon axial charges and quark momentum fractions.
