We investigate the total scattering cross section ($\sigma$), differential cross section ($\frac{d\sigma}{dQ^2}$), the longitudinal ($A_L(E_e,Q^2)$) and perpendicular ($A_P(E_e,Q^2)$) spin asymmetries of the polarized target proton, as well…

We evaluate the nucleon axial form factor, $G_A(q^2)$, and induced pseudoscalar form factor, $G_p(q^2)$, as well as the pion-nucleon form factor, $G_{\pi N N}(q^2)$, in lattice QCD. We also evaluate the corresponding nucleon to $\Delta$…
We present new parameterizations of vector and axial nucleon form factors. We maintain an excellent descriptions of the form factors at low momentum transfers ($Q^2$), where the spatial structure of the nucleon is important, and use the…
We extract a parameter $\xi$, a characteristic product of the strong and electromagnetic amplitudes for the N^*(1535), to be (2.20+-0.15) in unit of 10^(-4)MeV^(-1) from the new data on photoproduction of etas off proton.
We employ a dispersion relation that allows to recover the phase of the electromagnetic form factor of the pion from its absolute value above threshold. Compared to alternative approaches building on the phase, this approach builds on…
The parity violation programs at MIT-Bates, Jefferson Lab and Mainz are presently focused on developing a better understanding of the sea-quark contributions to the vector matrix elements of nucleon structure. The success of these programs…
We present a calculation of $\pi^0$ photoproduction on the proton in manifestly Lorentz-invariant baryon chiral perturbation theory up to and including chiral order $q^4$. With the results we analyze the latest $\pi^0$ photoproduction data…
In this article, we calculate the axial and the induced pseudoscalar form-factors $G_A(t=-Q^2)$ and $G_P(t=-Q^2)$ of the nucleons in the framework of the light-cone QCD sum-rules approach up to twist-6 three valence quark light-cone…
We investigate near threshold neutral pion photoproduction off protons to fourth order in heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory in the light of the new data from MAMI. We show that the unitarity cusp at the secondary \pi^+ n threshold is…
A large set of cross sections for semi-inclusive electroproduction of charged pions ($\pi^\pm$) from both proton and deuteron targets was measured. The data are in the deep-inelastic scattering region with invariant mass squared $W^2$ > 4…
The electromagnetic and axial form factors of the nucleon are evaluated in twisted mass QCD with two degenerate flavors of light, dynamical quarks. The axial charge g_A, magnetic moment and the Dirac and Pauli radii are determined for pion…
We consider pion electroproduction on a proton target close to threshold for Q^2 in the region 1-10 GeV^2. The momentum transfer dependence of the S-wave multipoles at threshold, E_{0+} and L_{0+}, is calculated using light-cone sum rules.
Background: Pion production gives information on the axial form factors of nucleon resonances. It also introduces a noticeable background to quasi-elastic measurements on nuclear targets and thus has a significant impact on precision…
The invariant amplitudes for pion electroproduction on the nucleon are evaluated by dispersion relations at constant t with MAID as input for the imaginary parts of these amplitudes. In the threshold region these amplitudes are confronted…
It is shown that the threshold productions of $\pi^0 pp$, $\pi^+ np$ and $\pi^+ d$ from $pp$ collisions can be consistently described by a model consisting of a pion s-wave rescattering and $N\bar N$ pair-terms of heavy-meson exchanges. The…
The dynamical model of pion electroproduction has been extended to investigate the weak pion production reactions. The predicted cross sections of neutrino-induced pion production reactions are in good agreement with the existing data. We…
We review the Rein--Sehgal model and criticize its use for low energy neutrino induced coherent pion production. We have studied the validity of the main approximations implicit in that model, trying to compare with physical observables…

Regge-pole based descriptions of pion-electroproduction on nucleons have given a very good description of the longitudinal components of the cross sections. However, these very same models grossly underestimate the transverse components. A…
