Description
The charge and magnetization distribution inside the nucelon are properties of interest to learn about the electromagnetic structure of the ordinary matter. Using light-front dynamics, rooted on the Hamiltonian formulation, we can define unambiguously the distribution of charge and magnetization on the nucleon. These are called the transverse densities. In this talk I will show how using a new formulation of Chiral Effective Field Theory, that includes dispersion theory, we can determine the transverse densities of the nucleon from low energy electron-proton scattering, and learn how the charge and magnetization are distributed inside the nucleon up to short distances.
