Description

I will review lattice techniques that can be used to calculate the strange contribution to the nucleon's form factors, a notoriously difficult computation since it involves the numerical evaluation of disconnected diagrams. I will then illustrate research on this topic which I am doing with colleagues at the Argonne National Laboratory, Boston University and Yale and show our preliminary results.
