Strange Quark Contribution to the Proton Spin, from Elastic $\vec{e}p$ and $\nu p$ Scattering
Abstract
The strangeness contribution to the vector and axial form factors of the proton is presented for momentum transfers in the range 0.45 < < 1.0 GeV. The results are obtained via a combined analysis of forward-scattering parity-violating elastic asymmetry data from the G0 and HAPPEx experiments at Jefferson Lab, and elastic and scattering data from Experiment 734 at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The combination of the two data sets allows for the simultaneous extraction of , , and over a significant range of for the very first time. Determination of the strange axial form factor is vital to an understanding of the strange quark contribution to the proton spin.
