Constraints from analyticity are combined with experimental electron-proton scattering data to determine the proton charge radius. In contrast to previous determinations, we provide a systematic procedure for analyzing arbitrary data without model-dependent assumptions on the form factor shape. We also investigate the impact of including electron-neutron scattering data, and $\pi\pi\to N\bar{N}$ data. Using representative datasets we find r_E^p=0.870 +/- 0.023 +/- 0.012 fm using just proton scattering data; r_E^p=0.880^{+0.017}_{-0.020} +/- 0.007 fm adding neutron data; and r_E^p=0.871 +/- 0.009 +/- 0.002 +/- 0.002 fm adding $\pi\pi$ data. The analysis can be readily extended to other nucleon form factors and derived observables.

  1. Scalar and Tensor Form Factors for $\Lambda \rightarrow p\ell \bar{\nu}_\ell$ from Lattice QCD

    hep-lat 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Lattice QCD yields the scalar and tensor form factors for Λ→pℓν̄ℓ as functions of q², providing a model-independent input to constrain non-standard charged-current interactions via the predicted R^{μe} ratio compared ...

    hep-lat 2026-02 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Lattice QCD on physical-pion-mass ensembles yields coupling constants g_D*+D+gamma = -0.204(22) GeV^-1, g_D*0D0gamma = 1.73(37) GeV^-1, and g_Ds*+Ds+gamma = -0.120(14) GeV^-1, with corresponding decay widths.

  3. Reconstruction of Gravitational Form Factors using Generative Machine Learning

    hep-ph 2026-02 conditional novelty 6.0

    A diffusion model trained on synthetic physics-motivated curves reconstructs the proton's A(t), J(t), D(t) from sparse data, extracting c8=-4.6±0.8, c9=-0.61±0.19, and D(0)=-4.3±0.8.

  4. The Nucleon Axial Form Factor from Elementary Target Data

    hep-ex 2025-12 conditional novelty 6.0

    The nucleon axial form factor from hydrogen and lattice-QCD data falls more slowly with Q² than deuterium-based fits, indicating deuterium extractions are biased low.

  5. Implications of exclusive photon leptoproduction measurements for the proton charge-radius puzzle

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0

    After excluding or cutting low-|t| CLAS 2018 data, BH-dominated EP measurements yield a proton charge radius smaller than the PDG average and consistent with PRad and muonic hydrogen.
