Parity violating pion electroproduction off the nucleon
Parity violating (PV) contributions due to interference between and
exchange are calculated for pion electroproduction off the nucleon. A
phenomenological model with effective Lagrangians is used to determine the
resulting asymmetry for the energy region between threshold and
resonance. The resonance is treated as a Rarita-Schwinger field with
phenomenological transition currents. The background contributions
are given by the usual Born terms using the pseudovector Lagrangian.
Numerical results for the asymmetry are presented.Comment: 17 pages, RevTeX, 6 figures (in separate file figs.uu), uses epsf,
