Abstract

The nucleon electromagnetic form factors encode information about their complex internal structure. At low Q² the form factors probe the peripheral structure of the nucleon and are related to the charge and magnetization distributions and radii. Several experiments at JLab have probed the low Q² form factors, producing a wealth of data. In particular, new, very precise measurements of the proton form factor ratio at very low Q² have shown a strong deviation from unity at lower values than previously observed. This low Q² behavior is unanticipated by theoretical calculations. Even newer, more precise measurements are underway and are expected to provide results with unprecedented precision down to Q² sim 0.15 GeV².
