Item Strange Quark Contributions to Parity-Violating Asymmetries in the Forward G0 Electron-Proton Scattering Experiment(2010-01) Armstrong, D.S.; Arvieux, J.; Asaturyan, R.; Averett, T.; Bailey, S.L.; Batigne, G.; Beck, D.H.; Beise, E.J.; Benesch, J.; Bimbot, L.; Birchall, J.; Hannelius, L.; Hasty, R.; Hawthorne-Allen, A.; Horn, T.; Johnston, K.; Jones, M.; Kammel, P.; Kazimi, R.; King, P.M.; Kolarkar, A.; Korkmaz, E.; Korsch, W.; Kox, S.; Kuhn, J.; Lachniet, J.; Lee, L.; Lenoble, J.; Liatard, E.; Liu, J.; Loupias, B.; Lung, A.; MacLachlan, G.A.; Marchand, D.; Martin, J.W.; McFarlane, K.W.; McKee, D.W.; McKeown, R.D.; Merchez, F.; Mkrtchyan, H.; Moffit, B.; Morlet, M.; Nakagawa, I.; Nakahara, K.; Nakos, M.; Neveling, R.; Niccolai, S.; Ong, S.; Page, S.; Papavassiliou, V.; Pate, S.F.; Phillips, S.K.; Pitt, M.L.; Poelker, M.; Porcelli, T.A.; Quemener, G.; Quinn, B.; Ramsay, W.D.; Rauf, A.W.; Real, J.S.; Roche, J.; Roos, P.; Rutledge, G.A.; Secrest, J.; Simicevic, N.; Smith, G.R.; Spayde, D.T.; Stepanyan, S.; Stutzman, M.; Sulkosky, V.; Tadevosyan, V.; Tieulent, R.; van de Wiele, J.; van Oers, W.; Voutier, E.; Vulcan, W.; Warren, G.; Wells, S.P.; Williamson, S.E.; Wood, S.A.; Yan, C.; Yun, J.; Zeps, V.; Biselli, A.; Bosted, P.; Boukobza, E.; Breuer, H.; Carlini, R.; Carr, R.; Chant, N.; Chao, Y.C.; Chattopadhyay, S.; Clark, R.; Covrig, S.; Cowley, A.; Dale, D.; Davis, C.; Falk, W.; Finn, J.M.; Forest, T.; Franklin, G.; Furget, C.; Gaskell, D.; Grames, J.; Griffioen, K.A.; Grimm, K.; Guillon, B.; Guler, H.We have measured parity-violating asymmetries in elastic electron-proton scattering over the range of momentum transfers 0.12 ≤ Q2 ≤ 1.0 GeV2. These asymmetries, arising from interference of the electromagnetic and neutral weak interactions, are sensitive to strange quark contributions to the currents of the proton. The measurements were made at JLab using a toroidal spectrom- eter to detect the recoiling protons from a liquid hydrogen target. The results indicate non-zero, Q2 dependent, strange quark contributions and provide new information beyond that obtained in previous experiments.Item Strange Quark Contributions to Parity-Violating Asymmetries in the Backward Angle G0 Electron Scattering Experiment(2005-08) Androic, D.; Armstrong, D.S.; Arvieux, J.; Bailey, S.L.; Beck, D.H.; Beise, E.J.; Benesch, J.; Benmokhtar, F.; Bimbot, L.; Birchall, J.; Bosted, P.; Breuer, H.; Capuano, C.L.; Chao, Y.C.; Coppens, A.; Davis, C.A.; Ellis, C.; Flores, G.; Franklin, G.; Furget, C.; Gaskell, D.; Gericke, M.T.W.; Grames, J.; Guillard, G.; Hansknecht, J.; Horn, T.; Jones, M.; King, P.M.; Korsch, W.; Kox, S.; Lee, L.; Liu, J.; Lung, A.; Mammei, J.; Martin, J.W.; McKeown, R.D.; Mihovilovic, M.; Micherdzinska, A.; Mkrtchyan, H.; Muether, M.; Page, S.A.; Papavassiliou, V.; Pate, S.F.; Phillips, S.K.; Pillot, P.; Pitt, M.L.; Poelker, M.; Quinn, B.; Ramsay, W.D.; Real, J.S.; Roche, J.; Roos, P.; Schaub, J.; Seva, T.; Simicevic, N.; Smith, G.R.; Spayde, D.T.; Stutzman, M.; Suleiman, R.; Tadevosyan, V.; van Oers, T.H.; Versteegen, M.; Voutier, E.; Vulcan, W.; Wells, S.P.; Williamson, S.E.; Wood, S.A.; G0 CollaborationWe have measured parity-violating asymmetries in elastic electron-proton and quasi-elastic electron-deuteron scattering at Q2 = 0.22 and 0.63 GeV2. They are sensitive to strange quark contributions to currents in the nucleon, and to the nucleon axial current. The results indicate strange quark contributions of <∼ 10% of the charge and magnetic nucleon form factors at these four-momentum transfers. We also present the first measurement of anapole moment effects in the axial current at these four-momentum transfers
