PCAC constraints on pion production/absorption within nonrelativistic nuclear dynamics
We show the necessity of two-nucleon axial currents and associated pion emission/absorption operators for the partial conservation of the axial current (PCAC) nuclear matrix elements with arbitrary nuclear dynamics described by a nonrelativistic Schrödinger equation. As examples we construct such nonrelativistic axial two-body currents in the linearand the heterotic (gA = 1.26) sigma models, wi...
متن کاملStrange and Charmed Quarks in the Nucleon
We discuss the general method of the calculation of the nucleon matrix elements of an operator associated with nonvalence quarks. The method is based on the QCD sum rules and low energy theorems. As an application of these considerations, we calculate the strange quark matrix element as well as the momentum distribution of the strangeness in the nucleon. We also calculate the singlet axial cons...
متن کاملPossible Tests of the “strangeness” of the Nucleon
The NC and CC scattering of neutrino(antineutrino) on protons and nuclei with isotopic spin equal to zero is considered. It is shown that the measurement of the neutrino-antineutrino asymmetry in these processes could allow to obtain model-independent information about the contribution of the axial strange current to the cross sections of the NC processes. Talk presented by S.M. Bilenky at the ...
متن کاملAxial-Current Matrix Elements in Light Nuclei from Lattice QCD
I present results from the first lattice QCD calculations of axial-current matrix elements in light nuclei, performed by the NPLQCD collaboration. Precision calculations of these matrix elements, and the subsequent extraction of multi-nucleon axial-current operators, are essential in refining theoretical predictions of the proton-proton fusion cross section, neutrino-nucleus cross sections and ...
متن کاملFlavor-spin symmetry estimate of the nucleon tensor charge.
The axial vector and tensor charge, defined as the first moments of the forward nucleon matrix elements of corresponding quark currents, are essential for characterizing the spin structure of the nucleon. There are no definitive theoretical predictions for the tensor charge, aside from several model-dependent calculations. We present a new approach that exploits the approximate mass degeneracy ...
