Electromagnetic Form Factors of the Nucleon and Compton Scattering

Nuclear Experiment 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

We review the experimental and theoretical status of elastic electron scattering and elastic low-energy photon scattering (with both real and virtual photons) from the nucleon. As a consequence of new experimental facilities and new theoretical insights, these subjects are advancing with unprecedented precision. These reactions provide many important insights into the spatial distributions and correlations of quarks in the nucleon.
