Abstract

We study the strangeness electromagnetic form factors of the nucleon from the Nf = 2 + 1 clover fermion lattice QCD calculation. The disconnected insertions are evaluated using the Z(4) stochastic method, along with unbiased subtractions from the hopping parameter expansion. In addition to increasing the number of Z(4) noises, we find that increasing the number of nucleon sources for each configuration improves the signal significantly. We obtain Gs M(0) = 0.017(25)(07), where the first error is statistical, and the second is the uncertainties in Q2 and chiral extrapolations. This is consistent with experimental values, and has an order of magnitude smaller error. We also study the strangeness second moment of the partion distribution function of the nucleon, hx2is s.
