Description

We calculate the axial and the induced pseudoscalar form-factors GA(t=-Q2) and GP(t=-Q2) of the nucleons in the framework of the light-cone QCD sum-rules approach up to twist-6 three valence quark light-cone distribution amplitudes, and observe that the form-factors GA(t=-Q2) and GP(t=-Q2) at intermediate and large momentum transfers with Q2>2 GeV2 have significant contributions from the end-point (soft) terms. The numerical values for the axial form-factor GA(t=-Q2) are compatible with the experimental data and theoretical calculations; for example, the chiral quark models and lattice QCD. The numerical values for the induced pseudoscalar form-factor GP(t=-Q2) are compatible with the calculation from the Bethe-Salpeter equation. (orig.)
