We analyse pp elastic scattering data at the highest accelerator energy region (between 10 and 63 GeV) through a multiple diffraction approach. The use of Martin's formula in a model developed earlier is substituted by the introduction of a…
Compton scattering by the proton has been measured over a wide range covering photon energies 250 MeV < E_\gamma < 800 MeV and photon scattering angles 30^0 < \theta^{lab}_\gamma < 150^0, using the tagged-photon facility at MAMI (Mainz) and…
We present a high-accuracy calculation of the deuteron structure radius in chiral effective field theory. Our analysis employs the state-of-the-art semilocal two-nucleon potentials and takes into account two-body contributions to the charge…
It is shown that meson radii can be extracted from diffractive scattering experiments of the type: $m+p\to m + X$, where p stands for the target proton, and m for the incident charged meson $\pi^+$, $\pi^-$, $K^+$, or $K^-$. The basis of…
Recently there has been disagreement between various experiments about the value of the proton radius which is known as the proton radius puzzle. Since the proton is not a point particle the charge radius of the proton depends on the charge…
We revisit the electromagnetic form factors of the proton and neutron in the original-minimal soft-wall holographic QCD, which has only two parameters, i.e., the mass scale $\kappa$ and the twist parameter of the nucleon $\tau$. We first…
We describe a calculation using quenched lattice QCD of the connected part of the neutron electric form factor for momentum transfers in the range $0.3 {\rm GeV^2} \stackrel{<}{\sim} -q^2 \stackrel{<}{\sim} 1.0 {\rm GeV^2}$. We extract the…
The differential cross section for elastic scattering of protons on electrons at rest is calculated taking into account the QED radiative corrections to the leptonic part of interaction. These model-independent radiative corrections arise…

Measurements of the proton's form factor ratio made with polarization transfer show a striking discrepancy relative to the ratio extracted from unpolarized elastic electron-proton scattering cross sections. One hypothesis is that the…

This paper concerns the most intriguing question of modern atomic physics: determination of the proton root-mean-square (rms) charge radius ($r_p$). This problem was announced by the difference in $r_p$ values extracted from the experiments…
In this paper, we apply the Maximum Entropy Method to estimate the proton radius and determine the valence quark distributions in the proton at extremely low resolution scale Q$^{2}_{0}$. Using the simplest functional form of the valence…
To date the magnetic radius of the proton has been determined only by means of electron-proton scattering, which is not free of controversies. Any existing atomic determinations are irrelevant because they are strongly model-dependent. We…

We report the first precision measurement of the proton electric to magnetic form factor ratio from spin-dependent elastic scattering of longitudinally polarized electrons from a polarized hydrogen internal gas target. The measurement was…
The deuteron charge radius is calculated from the measurement of the Lamb shift in muonic deuterium, taking into account the electron vacuum polarization correction to the nuclear-structure effects. This correction is unexpectedly large and…
We find a new method to deduce nuclear radii from proton-nucleus elastic scattering data. In this method a nucleus is viewed as a ``black'' sphere. A diffraction pattern of protons by this sphere is equivalent to that of the Fraunhofer…
