Comparison of γZ-structure function models
The γZ-box is an important contribution to the proton's weak charge. The γZ-box is calculated dispersively and depends on γZ-structure functions, F{sub 1,2,3}{sup γZ}(x,Q{sup 2}). At present there is no data for these structure functions and they must be modeled by modifying existing fits to electromagnetic data. Each group that has studied the γZ-box used different modifications. The results of the PVDIS experiment at Jefferson Lab may provide a first test of the validity of each group's models. I present details of the different models and their predictions for the PVDIS result.
