Abstract

Precise estimates of the nucleon charges \$g\_A\$, \$g\_S\$ and \$g\_T\$ are needed in many phenomenological analyses of SM and BSM physics. In this talk, we present results from two sets of calculations using clover fermions on 9 ensembles of 2+1+1-flavor HISQ and 4 ensembles of 2+1-flavor clover lattices. We show that high statistics can be obtained cost-effectively using the truncated solver method with bias correction and the coherent source sequential propagator technique. By performing simulations at 4--5 values of the source-sink separation \$t\_sep\$, we demonstrate control over excited-state contamination using 2- and 3-state fits. Using the high-precision 2+1+1-flavor data, we perform a simultaneous fit in \$a\$, \$M\_\pi\$ and \$M\_L\$ to obtain our final results for the charges.
