摘要:Hadron structure calculations in lattice QCD have seen remarkable progress during recent years. We illustrate the achievements that have been made by discussing latest lattice results for a number of important observables related to nucleon form factors and generalized parton distributions. A particular focus is placed on the decomposition of the nucleon spin 1=2 in terms of quark spin and orbital angular momentum contributions. Results and limitations of the necessary chiral extrapolations based on ChPT will be briefly discussed.
