Description

A lattice QCD calculation of the light and strange axial form factors $G_A$ and $G_P$ of the nucleon will be reported. Disconnected diagrams were calculated using hierarchical probing, and a clear nonzero signal was obtained. We pay special attention to renormalization, which we determined nonperturbatively, including the mixing between light and strange quarks. This calculation was done on a single ensemble with 2+1 flavours of stout-smeared Wilson-clover fermions at pion mass 317 MeV and near-physical strange quark mass.
