Continuum Moment Equations on the Lattice

Abstract

An analysis is given as to why one can not directly evaluate continuum moment equations, i.e., equations involving powers of the position variable times charge, current, or energy/momentum operators, on the lattice. I examine two cases: a three point function evaluation of the nucleon magnetic moment and a four point function (charge overlap) evaluation of the pseudoscalar charge radius.Comment: 9 pages; 1 ps figur
