Parity Violation in Electron Quasi-Elastic Scattering

Abstract

Parity violating electron scattering on a nucleus in the quasi-elastic region is investigated within a relativistic single particle model from Pb-208 and with the incident electron energy up to 1 GeV. We discuss the effect of nucleon electromagnetic form factors by comparing the standard Sachs form factors with the parameterized form recently adjusted to the world data. The effect of the strangeness is also investigated through the recent results of the strangeness form factors, and we separately calculate the asymmetries of longitudinal and transverse response functions.
