Polarization phenomena in elastic $e^{\mp}N$ scattering, for axial parametrization of two-photon exchange
Abstract
We analyze polarization phenomena for elastic lepton-nucleon scattering, parametrizing the -exchange contribution, as the product of lepton and nucleon axial vector currents, that correspond to exchange in the annihilation channel. We found two combinations of polarization observables (one for three T-odd observables and another one - for five T-even observables), which allow to measure the ratio of nucleon electromagnetic form factors in model independent way, without any specific assumption about the -exchange mechanism. Both these combinations have a general character and do not depend on the choice of the spin structure for the -exchange. We show the inconsistency of other approximations recently used in the literature.
