We study the scattering of neutrinos on polarized and unpolarized free nucleons, and also the polarization of recoil particles in these scatters. In contrast to electromagnetic processes, the parity-violating weak interaction gives rise to large spin asymmetries at leading order. Future polarization measurements could provide independent access to the proton axial structure and allow the first extraction of the pseudoscalar form factor from neutrino data without the conventional partially conserved axial current (PCAC) ansatz and assumptions about the pion-pole dominance. The pseudoscalar form factor can be accessed with precise measurements with muon (anti)neutrinos of a few hundreds $mathrm{MeV}$ of energy or with tau (anti)neutrinos. The axial form factor can be extracted from scattering measurements using accelerator neutrinos of all energies.

We compute the nucleon axial and induced pseudoscalar form factors using three ensembles of gauge configurations, generated with dynamical light quarks with mass tuned to approximately their physical value. One of the ensembles also includes the stra nge and charm quarks with their mass close to physical. The latter ensemble has large statistics and finer lattice spacing and it is used to obtain final results, while the other two are used for assessing volume effects. The pseudoscalar form factor is also computed using these ensembles. We examine the momentum dependence of these form factors as well as relations based on pion pole dominance and the partially conserved axial-vector current hypothesis.
We analyze available experimental data on the total and differential charged-current cross sections for quasielastic neutrino and antineutrino scattering off nucleons, measured with a variety of nuclear targets in the accelerator experiments at ANL, BNL, FNAL, CERN, and IHEP, dating from the end of sixties to the present day. The data are used to adjust the poorly known value of the axial-vector mass of the nucleon.

We present results on the nucleon axial form factors within lattice QCD using two flavors of degenerate twisted mass fermions. Volume effects are examined using simulations at two volumes of spatial length $L=2.1$ fm and $L=2.8$ fm. Cut-off effects a re investigated using three different values of the lattice spacings, namely $a=0.089$ fm, $a=0.070$ fm and $a=0.056$ fm. The nucleon axial charge is obtained in the continuum limit and chirally extrapolated to the physical pion mass enabling comparison with experiment.
We use a continuum quark+diquark approach to the nucleon bound-state problem in relativistic quantum field theory to deliver parameter-free predictions for the nucleon axial and induced pseudoscalar form factors, $G_A$ and $G_P$, and unify them with the pseudoscalar form factor $G_5$ or, equivalently, the pion-nucleon form factor $G_{pi NN}$. We explain how partial conservation of the axial-vector current and the associated Goldberger-Treiman relation are satisfied once all necessary couplings of the external current to the building blocks of the nucleon are constructed consistently; in particular, we fully resolve the seagull couplings to the diquark-quark vertices associated with the axial-vector and pseudoscalar currents. Among the results we describe, the following are worth highlighting. A dipole form factor defined by an axial charge $g_A=G_A(0)=1.25(3)$ and a mass-scale $M_A = 1.23(3) m_N$, where $m_N$ is the nucleon mass, can accurately describe the pointwise behavior of $G_A$. Concerning $G_P$, we obtain the pseudoscalar charge $g_p^ast = 8.80(23)$, and find that the pion pole dominance approach delivers a reliable estimate of the directly computed result. Our computed value of the pion-nucleon coupling constant, $g_{pi NN}/m_N =14.02(33)/{rm GeV}$ is consistent with a Roy--Steiner-equation analysis of pion-nucleon scattering. We also observe a marked suppression of the size of the $d$-quark component relative to that of the $u$-quark in the ratio $g_A^d/g_A^u=-0.16(2)$, which highlights the presence of strong diquark correlations inside the nucleon -- both scalar and axial-vector, with the scalar diquark being dominant.

The study of electromagnetic and weak form factors of nucleon (charged quasielastic scatterings of neutrino (antineutrino) and nucleon) done in $70^prime s$ and published in Chinese journals is reviewed. In the approach of the study antiquark compone nts are introduced to the wave functions of nucleon and the study shows that the antiquark components of nucleon play an essential role in the EM and weak form factors of nucleon. The SU(6) symmetric wave functions of baryons in the rest frame ( s-wave in the rest frame) have been constructed. In these wave functions there are both quark and antiquark components. Using Lorentz transformations these wave functions are boosted to moving frame. In terms of effective Lagrangian these wave functions are used to study the EM and weak form factors of nucleon and $p rightarrow Delta$. The ratio $mu_p G^p_E/G^p_M$, $G^n_E$, $G^n_M$, $G^*_M$, $E1+$ and $S1+$ of $p rightarrow Delta$ are predicted. The axial-vector form factors of nucleon is predicted to be $G_A(q^2)/G_A(0) = F^p_1(q^2)$, where the $F^p_1$ is the first Dirac form factor of proton. This prediction agrees with data very well. The pseudoscalar form factor of nucleon is predicted. The model predicts there are three axial-form factors for $prightarrowDelta$ and two of them play dominant roles. The cross sections of $ u_mu + n rightarrow p + mu^-;;bar{ u}_mu + p rightarrow n + mu^+$, $Delta S = 1$ quasielastic neutrino scatterings, and $ u_mu + p rightarrow Delta^{++} + mu^-$ are predicted. Theoretical results are in agreement with data. The study shows that antiquark components of baryons play an essential role in understanding nucleon structure.
