Proton elastic form factor ratios toQ2=3.5GeV2by polarization transfer

Abstract: The ratio of the proton elastic electromagnetic form factors, GEp/GMp, was obtained by measuring Pt and P ℓ , the transverse and longitudinal recoil proton polarization components, respectively, for the elastic ep → e p reaction in the four-momentum transfer squared range of 0.5 to 3.5 GeV 2 . In the single-photon exchange approximation, the ratio GEp/GMp is directly proportional to the ratio Pt/P ℓ . The simultaneous measurement of Pt and P ℓ in a polarimeter reduces systematic uncertainties. The results for … Show more

“…Traditionally they have been extracted under the assumption of one-photon exchange via the Rosenbluth cross section in (4.40). It came as quite a surprise when the polarisation transfer measurements at Jefferson Lab revealed a ratio G p E /G p M that falls off and points towards a zero crossing at larger Q 2 [568][569][570][571], in stark contrast to the Rosenbluth measurements which had predicted a constant ratio. The question of the zero crossing for G p E is not yet settled because the experimental errors are still too large, but the situation is expected to change in the near future with the Jefferson Lab 12 GeV program where measurements in Halls A, B and C will extend the data range for G p E , G n E , and G n M up to the 10 -14 GeV 2 region [572].…”

“…In this respect, new experiments with polarised beams and/or polarised targets performed at Jefferson Lab allowed to extract the ratio G E /G M directly. However, the resulting ratio disagrees with the scaling predictions and shows a falloff with t, even pointing towards a zero crossing at larger t [568][569][570][571].…”

“…We demonstrate that application of the technique provides a dramatic improvement in On the left, the ratio G E /G M for the proton from application of the Feynman-Hellmann method, from a variational analysis of three-point functions, and from experiment [37,4,3]. On the right, the scaled pion form factor Q 2 F π from the Feynman-Hellmann technique and from experiment [7].…”

“…All partial contributions have been renormalised to produce unity at Q 2 = 0. Data: circles (blue) [19]; squares (green) [20]; asterisks (brown) [21]; and diamonds (purple) [22]. Upper-Right panel: The electromagnetic γ * N → ∆ transition is described by three Poincaré-invariant form factors [24]: magnetic-dipole, G * M , electric quadrupole, G * E , and Coulomb (longitudinal) quadrupole, G * C ; that can be extracted in the Dyson-Schwinger approach by a sensible set of projection operators [25].…”
