A New Technique for Measuring the Strangemess Content of the Proton on the Lattice

Abstract

A new technique for computing the strangeness content of the proton on the lattice is described. It is applied to the calculation of the strange quark contribution to the proton's spin, specifically to the evaluation of the proton matrix element of the strange quark axial current. Preliminary results are not in disagreement with the EMC experiment. NOTE: This paper is available only in postscript form.
