Utilizing dispersion theory and an improved description of the two-pion continuum based on precise Roy-Steiner analysis of pion-nucleon scattering, recent data from electron-proton scattering was analyzed. This allowed for a high-precision determination of the electric and magnetic radius of the proton.
Using dispersion theory with an improved description of the two-pion continuum based on the precise Roy-Steiner analysis of pion-nucleon scattering, we analyze recent data from electron-proton scattering. This allows for a high-precision determination of the electric and magnetic radius of the proton, r(E) = (0.838(-0.004-0.003)(+0.005+0.004)) fm and r(M) = (0.847 +/- 0.004 +/- 0.004) fm, where the first error refers to the fitting procedure using bootstrap and the data while the second one refers to the systematic uncertainty related to the underlying spectral functions.
