Strange quarks in the nucleon sea: Results from HAPPEX II

Conference · · Eur. Phys. J. A
The HAPPEX Collaboration measured parity-violating electron scattering from 4He(e, e) and H(e, e) in 2004 and 2005 for Q2 ≤ 0.11 GeV2. Results for the strange-quark contributions to the electromagnetic form factors of the nucleon from the 2004 data will be reviewed. Preliminary results from the 2005 data, which have significantly greater statistical precision, are GsE = 0.004 0.014stat 0.013syst for Q2 = 0.0772 GeV2 from the helium data and GsE + 0.088 GsM = 0.004 0.011stat 0.005syst 0.004FF for Q2 = 0.1089 GeV2 from the hydrogen data.
