Weak neutral current axial form factor using ν ¯ ν $$ \left(\overline{\nu}\right)\nu $$ -nucleon scattering and lattice QCD inputs by Raza Sabbir Sufian, Keh-Fei Liu, David G. Richards

“…The value of G A Z 0 $$ {G}_A^Z(0) $$ constrained by the lattice QCD calculation of G A s 0 $$ {G}_A^s(0) $$ , when compared to its phenomenological determination, provides a significant improvement in precision and accuracy and can be used to provide a constraint on the fit to G A Z Q 2 $$ {G}_A^Z\left({Q}^2\right) $$ for Q2> 0. This constrained fit leads to an unambiguous determination of (anti)neutrino-nucleon neutral current elastic scattering differential cross section near Q2 = 0 and can play an important role in numerically isolating nuclear effects in this region. …”
