Title:The Axial Form Factor Extracted from Elementary Targets
Abstract: Next generation neutrino oscillation experiments are poised to provide answers to key questions about the nature of the neutrino. The axial form factor is a vital ingredient for constructing nucleon amplitudes and predicting quasielastic scattering cross sections, a primary signal measurement process for flagship oscillation experiments. The uncertainty on this form factor is vastly underestimated by the dipole parameterization and a model independent determination is...

Title: Shedding Light on Shadow Generalized Parton Distributions
Abstract: The feasibility of extracting generalized parton distributions (GPDs) from deeply virtual Compton scattering (DVCS) data has recently been questioned because of the existence of an infinite set of so-called “shadow GPDs” (SGPDs). These SGPDs depend on the...
Abstract: Parity-violating experiments like P2 at Mainz Energy-Recovering Superconducting Accelerator (MESA) demand accuracy of polarization measurement of ¿P/P < 1 %. To ensure electron beam polarization, a polarimetry chain with polarimeters at different energies is planned. This will help to track the beam polarization throughout the MESA lattice. A 5 MeV Mott polarimeter is planned as a part of the chain. This polarimeter is planned to run parallel to the Moller polarimeter and P2 experiment...
