We present the first lattice-QCD result for the Zemach and Friar radii of the proton and neutron. Our calculation includes both quark-connected and -disconnected diagrams and assesses all sources of systematic uncertainties arising from…
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…
We obtain a model independent expression for the muonic hydrogen Lamb shift up to $\mathcal O (m_\mu \alpha^6, m_\mu \alpha^5 \frac{m_\mu^2}{m_\rho^2})$. The hadronic effects are controlled by the chiral theory, which allows for their model…
A method is presented to extract the neutron-skin thickness of atomic nuclei from the second and fourth moments of the electric charge distribution. We show that the value of the proton fourth moment must be independently known in order to…

We report the charge-changing cross sections ($\sigma_{\text{cc}}$) of 24 $p$-shell nuclides on both hydrogen and carbon at about 900$A$ MeV, of which $^{8,9}$Li, $^{10\textendash12}$Be, $^{10,14,15}$B, $^{14,15,17\textendash22}$N and…
Alvarado, Aranda, and Bonilla propose a sub-GeV U(1)R gauge boson model to explain the proton charge radius discrepancy. Their model assumes opposite sign U(1)R charge assignments for up and down quarks in the nucleon. I point out that…

In two recent papers it is argued that the 'proton radius puzzle' can be explained by truncating the electron scattering data to low momentum transfer and fit the rms radius in the low momentum expansion of the form factor. It is shown that…
We obtain a model independent expression for the muonic hydrogen Lamb shift. This expression includes the leading logarithmic ${\cal O}(m_{\mu}\alpha^6)$ terms, as well as the leading ${\cal O}(m_{\mu}\alpha^5 \frac{m_{\mu}^2}{m_{\rho}^2})$…
