Nucleon Properties in Partially Quenched QCD

S.R. Beane and M.J. Savage

Continuing the work that we have been involved in during the last year or so, we performed a complete analysis of the single nucleon observables in two-flavor partially-quenched $\chi $PT, (PQ$\chi $PT). We examined masses, magnetic moments, matrix elements of the twist-two operators and the axial matrix elements up to next-to-leading order. We found that there are more invariants in the partially-quenched theory that in QCD. It is not clear if these additional terms will lead to complications in the extraction of QCD matrix elements, but at this point it appears that they will not.
