Contribution of Two-Photon Exchange with Excitation to ep Scattering RevisitedShin Nan YangNational Taiwan University In collaboration with Haiqing Zhou, Southeast University, Nanjing International Conference on the Structure of Baryons (Baryons2013), Glasgow, Scotland, June 24 – 28, 2013 1
Outline Background 2. Improvements over previous study 3. Results 4.Summary 2
Background • Proton, the onlystablehadron and the lightest baryon, is most amenable to experimental and theoretical studies. • Experimental measurements of proton EM form factors started in 1950s (Hofstadter, 1961 Nobel prize) • Unpolarized data before 2000, analyzed via Rosenbluth formular (LT method), can be fitted by as quoted in the textbooks and often called as SCALING LAW
big surprise!!! • Polarization transfer experiment at Jlab: • M.K. Jones et al., • Phys. Rev. Letts. 84, 1398 (2000). • exp. in Hall A, Jlab with • Elab = 0.934 - 4.090 GeV • GE falls faster than GM • GM/μpGD is approximately constant 4
Ensuing efforts to verify the discrepancy - experimental • New global analysis of the world’s cross section data (Arrington, 2003) → still inconsistent with the polarization measurements • High-precision Super-Rosenbluth experiment (Qattan et al., 2005) → with4 - 8% precision, 5

Ensuing efforts to understand the discrepancy - theoretical • Re-examination of the radiative corrections O (α2) • Maximon and Tjon: — ε dependencecomes only from proton vertex and TPE corrections; proton vertex corr. < 0.5% Two photon exchange effects ??
Two-photon exchange calculation : hadronic Blunden, Melnitchouk, & Tjon, 2003 N Blunden, Melnitchouk, Tjon, PRL 91 (2003) 142304; with only nucleon in the intermediate states.
Two-photon exchange :partonic calculation GPDs Chen, et al., PRL, 93, (2004) 122301 TPE can account for at least 50% of the discrepancy in the value of μpGE/GM extracted from LT and PT methods !!
Δ Contribution to TPE:hadronic Kondratyuk, Blunden, Melnitchouk, Tjon, (KBMT) PRL, 95 (2005) 172503. Δ(1232) contribution to TPE is not negligible !

Results Effects of correct vertex function Effects of realistic γNΔ form factors
Effects of realistic γNΔ coupling constants with correct vertex function but KBMT’s f.f.’s Combined effects of all three improvements
Comparison with preliminary rad-uncorr. data from CLAS Comparison with preliminary rad-corr. data from Novosibirsk
Summary • Three improvements, correct vertex function, realistic form factors, and coupling constantsfor the γNΔ vertex,have been implemented 2. Each improvement, implemented separately, all produced substantial effect, especially the f.f.’s as in the case of TPE/N. However, the combined effects are modest, but non-negligible, in many cases.
3. TPE effects from N and Δ within hadronic model can provide a fair account for the unpolarized cross sections and the discrepancy found for the ratio GE/GM obtained from LT and PT analyses 4. Substantial discrepancyremains between predictions of hadronic model with Born plus TPE and otherdata like R(e+p/e-p) and PL/PL (Born) More experimental and theoretical efforts are called for !!
The End Thanks you!!
