The elastic and inelastic high--energy small--angle electron--positron scattering is considered. All radiative corrections to the cross--section with the relative accuracy $\delta\sigma/ \sigma = 0.1 \% $ are explicitly taken into account.…
We investigate the effect of two-photon exchange processes upon the rms- and Zemach radii extracted from electron-proton scattering. We find that the changes are small and do not help to explain the discrepancy between experimental and…
Forthcoming fixed-target coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering experiments aim at measurements with $\cal{O}(\text{tonne})$-scale detectors and substantially reduced systematic and statistical uncertainties. With such high quality…
We have calculated the proton charge radius by assuming that the real proton radius is not unique and the radii are randomly distributed in a certain range. This is performed by averaging the elastic electron-proton differential cross…
By using electromagnetic form factors predicted by Generalized Chou Yang model (GCYM), we compute root mean square (rms) radii of several hadrons with varying strangeness content (number of strange quarks/anti-quarks) such as (pion, proton,…
We discuss recent suggestions on the resolution of the proton radius puzzle put forward in [1,2] and discovery of a nonperturbative quantum-electrodynamic contribution of order $(\alpha/\pi)^5$ to lepton anomalous magnetic moments announced…
We present a determination of the pion charge radius from high precision data on the pion vector form factor from both timelike and spacelike regions, using a novel formalism based on analyticity and unitarity. At low energies, instead of…

Silicon detector technologies are often employed for high energy particle physics applications due to their excellent radiation hardness. Radiation damage in the form of bulk or substrate damage is dependent on the incident particle species…
Significant discrepancies have been observed between proton form factors as measured by Rosenbluth separation and polarization transfer techniques. There are indications that this difference may be caused by corrections to the one photon…

Nucleons (protons and neutrons) are the building blocks of atomic nuclei, and are responsible for more than 99\% of the visible matter in the universe. Despite decades of efforts in studying its internal structure, there are still a number…
Radiative corrections to the parity-violating asymmetry measured in elastic electron-proton scattering are analyzed in the framework of the Standard Model. We include the complete set of one-loop contributions to one quark current…
Recent polarization transfer measurements of the proton electromagnetic form factors yield very different results from previous Rosenbluth extractions. This inconsistency implies uncertainties in our knowledge of the form factors and raises…
A study of proton-proton collisions at very high energy has revealed a "black disk," whose radius grows with the logarithm of the center-of-mass energy, surrounded by an edge of approximately constant width 1 fm. We interpret this behavior…
Neutron star radii are primarily determined by the pressure of isospin asymmetric matter which is proportional to the slope of the nuclear symmetry energy. Available terrestrial laboratory data on the isospin diffusion in heavy-ion…
The neutron radius of a heavy nucleus is a fundamental nuclear-structure observable that remains elusive. Progress in this arena has been limited by the exclusive use of hadronic probes that are hindered by large and controversial…
