The study of the neutral current elastic scattering of neutrinos on protons at lower energies can be used as a compelling probe to improve our knowledge of the strangeness of the proton. We consider a neutrino beam generated from pion decay…

Relativistic corrections to the strange axial form factor are evaluated within a light-cone formalism, taking into account effects due to the breaking of Lorentz covariance associated with the use of one-body currents. Similar corrections…

The simplest models might describe the nucleon as 3 light quarks, but this description would be incomplete without inclusion of the sea of glue and q-qbar pairs which binds it. Early indications of a particularly large contribution from…

We report on a measurement of the parity-violating asymmetry in the scattering of longitudinally polarized electrons on unpolarized protons at a $Q^2$ of 0.230 (GeV/c)^2 and a scattering angle of \theta_e = 30^o - 40^o. Using a large…

We demonstrate that a nonzero strangeness contribution to the spacelike electromagnetic form factor of the nucleon is evidence for a strange-antistrange asymmetry in the nucleon's light-front wave function, thus implying different…

Relativistic exchange current corrections to the impulse approximation in low and intermediate energy neutrino--nucleus scattering are presented assuming non--vanishing strange quark form factors for constituent nucleons. Two--body exchange…
