Electromagnetic form factors
Elastic ep scatering has a leading contribution from single photon
- exchange. This allows the measurement of
Gγ (p)
E,M = 2 3Gu E,M − 1 3Gd E,M − 1 3Gs E,M + . . .
and in particular the charge radius r2
E = −6Gγ (p)′ E
(0), where experimental results suffer from the proton radius problem. Assuming isospin, elastic en scatering probes the same, with u ↔ d. Finally, parity-violating elastic ep scatering is sensitive to the interference between photon and Z boson exchange. This can be used to determine GZ (p)
E,M = (1 − 8 3 sin2 θW )Gu E,M − (1 − 4 3 sin2 θW )(Gd E,M + Gs E,M) + . . .

◮ Muon capture, µ−p → νµn, is sensitive to Gu−d P

Latice QCD
...is a regularization of Euclidean-space QCD such that the path integral can be done fully non-perturbatively.
◮ Euclidean spacetime becomes a periodic hypercubic latice, with
spacing a and box size L3
s × Lt. ◮ Path integral over fermion degrees of freedom is done analytically, for
each gauge configuration. Solving the Dirac equation with a fixed source yields a source-to-all quark propagator.
◮ Path integral over gauge degrees of freedom is done numerically using
Monte Carlo methods to generate an ensemble of gauge configurations. The a → 0 and Ls,Lt → ∞ extrapolations need to be taken by using multiple ensembles.

Connected and disconnected diagrams
Two kinds of quark contractions required for C3pt(τ,T) = χ(T)¯ qΓq(τ ) ¯ χ (0):
◮ Connected, which we evaluate in the usual way
with sequential propagators through the sink.
◮ Disconnected, which requires stochastic estimation to evaluate the
disconnected loop, T ( q,t,Γ) = −
- x
ei
q· x Tr[ΓD−1(x,x)].
Introduce noise sources η that satisfy E(ηη†) = I. By solving ψ = D−1η, we get D−1(x,y) = E(ψ (x)η†(y)), so that T ( q,t,Γ) = E

We then need to compute the correlation between this loop and a two-point correlator.

Fiting Q2-dependence
We want to fit GE,M,A,P (Q2) with curves to characterize the overall shape of the form factor, and determine the intercepts and/or radii.
◮ Common approach: use simple fit forms such as a dipole. ◮ Beter: use z-expansion. Conformally map domain where G(Q2) is
analytic in complex Q2 to |z| < 1, then use a Taylor series:
Q 2 z
e.g. R. J. Hill and G. Paz, Phys. Rev. D 84 (2011) 073006
z(Q2) =
- tcut + Q2 − √tcut
- tcut + Q2 + √tcut
, G(Q2) =
- k
akz(Q2)k, with Gaussian priors imposed on the coefficients ak.
◮ Leave a0 and a1 unconstrained, so that the intercept and slope are not
directly constrained.
◮ For higher coefficients, impose |ak>1| < 5 max{|a0|,|a1|}, and vary the
bound to estimate systematic uncertainty. For GP, perform the fit to (Q2 + m2)GP (Q2) to remove the pseudoscalar pole.

Isovector electromagnetic form factors
talk by Nesreen Hasan (LHP collaboration), Latice 2016
Single ensemble:
◮ Physical pion mass. ◮ mπ L = 4 ◮ a = 0.093 fm
New method for directly computing the momentum derivative of the contribution from quark-connected diagrams to nucleon correlators:
- 1. Set up a calculation with twisted boundary conditions to access
arbitrary non-Fourier momenta.
- 2. Take the derivative with respect to the twist angle, which gives ∂/∂qj.
The evaluation of this on the latice was worked out in G. M. de Divitiis,
- R. Petronzio, N. Tantalo, Phys. Let. B 718, 589 (2012) .
First and second momentum derivatives yield direct calculations of the isovector nucleon magnetic moment and charge radius.

Light and strange axial form factors
talk by JG (LHP Collaboration), Latice 2016
Same mπ = 317 MeV dataset as for electromagnetic form factors. Additional challenge: renormalization, which differs between flavour singlet and nonsinglet axial currents.
◮ Nonsinglet has zero anomalous dimension and is fairly straightforward. ◮ Singlet has nonzero anomalous dimension starting at O(α2).
◮ Perform matching and running to MS at µ = 2 GeV. ◮ Can reuse the previously-computed disconnected diagrams when
evaluating the relevant observables for nonperturbative renormalization.
Singlet-nonsinglet difference causes mixing between As

Summary and outlook
Calculations of quark-connected nucleon matrix elements and form factors are approaching maturity:
◮ Multiple collaborations are working with near-physical pion masses. ◮ Control over excited states and exponential growth of noise remain a
challenge.
◮ Remaining systematics (a → 0, L → ∞) remain to be controlled.
There is a serious effort to calculate disconnected diagrams:
◮ Modern techniques seem effective at controlling the noise from
stochastic estimation.
◮ Non-perturbative renormalization can also be done.
Exploratory calculations are ongoing for many more challenging
- bservables:
◮ Decompositions of (angular) momentum into quarks and gluons. ◮ Form factors at high Q2, and direct computation of charge radii. ◮ Parton distribution functions and transverse momentum-dependent
PDFs.

Few fully-controlled studies; fit them with floating norm gA(mπ L,. . . ) = A(. . . )(1 + Be−mπ L) → implies −0.8(5)% shif at mπ L = 4 (χ2/dof = 19/9).
