Parity-violating quasifree electron-deuteron scattering in a covariant approach

Nuclear Theory 2009-10-30 v1

Abstract

The role of relativistic corrections associated with lower Dirac components of the deuteron wavefunction, is examined for parity-violating (PV) electron scattering. The relation between these corrections and negative energy components of the struck nucleon in relativistic PWIA is elucidated. The model dependence induced by describing such effects, using different deuteron vertex functions and prescriptions for the half-off-shell nucleon vertices, is compared against the precision required for studies of nucleon strangeness in quasielastic PV ede-d scattering.
