Abstract
An overview of recent data on electromagnetic hadron form factors is presented and discussed in terms of selected nucleon models in spacelike and timelike regions. Model independent properties connecting scattering and annihilation channels are presented and give a deeper understanding of the underlying physics. Radiative corrections are discussed. The interest of polarization observables with respect to model predictions and reaction mechanism (one photon versus two photon exchange) is highlighted.
Keywords: Elastic electron scattering; electromagnetic form factors; polarization in interactions and scattering.
Resumen
Se revisan los datos experimentales de los factores de forma electromagnéticos y se estudian dichos factores de forma en varios modelos del nucleón en la región espacialoide y temporaloide. Se presentan algunas propiedades, que son independientes de modelos particulares, que conectan los canales de dispersión y aniquilación y que proveen un mejor entendimiento de la física. Se discuten las correcciones radiativas. Se enfatiza la importancia de observables de polarización para comprobar las predicciones de modelos del nucleón así como los mecanismos de reacciones (intercambio de un foton versus de dos fotones).
Descriptores: Dispersión elástica de electrones; factores de forma electromagnéticos; polarización en interacciones y dispersión.
