Description

I report on recent simulations of clover fermions with masses extending down to the physical point. The focus is on pion and nucleon two-point functions. Among the topics being addressed are the light quark masses, the low-energy constants of the underlying chiral and heavy-baryon effective theories, the nucleon sigma term, the pion decay constant, as well as effects of the finite volume.
