The interactions give rise to complexity that can only be examined via numerical simulations on supercomputers. This work provides an introduction to the numerical simulations of lattice QCD and establishes new formalisms relevant to understanding the structure of nucleons and their excited states. The research opens with an examination of the non-trivial QCD vacuum and the emergence of ?centre domains.? The focus then turns to establishing a novel Parity-Expanded Variational Analysis (PEVA) technique solving the important problem of isolating baryon states moving with finite momentum. This seminal work provides a foundation for future calculations of baryon properties. Implementation of the PEVA formalism discloses important systematic errors in conventional calculations and reveals the structure of nucleon excited states from the first principles of QCD for the first time. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aElementary particles (Physics) 606 $aQuantum field theory 606 $aPhysics 606 $aElementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23029 606 $aNumerical and Computational Physics, Simulation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19021 615 0$aElementary particles (Physics). 615 0$aQuantum field theory. 615 0$aPhysics. 615 14$aElementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory. 615 24$aNumerical and Computational Physics, Simulation. 676 $a539.7548 676 $a539.7548 700 $aStokes$b Finn M$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0838579 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910349512903321 996 $aStructure of Nucleon Excited States from Lattice QCD$91873066 997 $aUNINA
