ECT* Proton Radius Workshop Trento 2016 Eric Hessels & Marko Horbatsch York University Toronto Canada 2 Three things I would like to talk about: A tabulation of the bound-state energies of hydrogen Evaluating the proton radius from ep scattering data Progress on our H 2S-2P Lamb-shift measurement (If I have time left) Determining the Proton Charge Radius from Electron-Proton Scattering and from Hydrogen Spectroscopy

ECT* Proton Radius Workshop Trento 2016 Eric Hessels & Marko Horbatsch York University Toronto Canada 3 A tabulation of the bound-state energies of hydrogen We need a correct description of the hydrogen energy levels to analyze our Lamb shift measurement (in progress) with the anomalous moment corrections and mass corrections and corrections due to off-diagonal mixing of j states This work is the first appearance in the literature of the correct general formulas for these corrections Our tabulation includes hyperfine structure (not included in other tabulations)

ECT* Proton Radius Workshop Trento 2016 Eric Hessels & Marko Horbatsch York University Toronto Canada 4 The tabulation of low-lying bound states includes all f states (hyperfine structure) has uncertainties of <1 kHz shows sensitivity to proton radius (CODATA vs muonic hydrogen) All states (not just S) depend on radius due to the necessary adjustment of Ry See poster for more details (uses CREMA, 1S-2S, 1S,2S hfs expt. Input)

ECT* Proton Radius Workshop Trento 2016 Eric Hessels & Marko Horbatsch York University Toronto Canada 6 Evaluating the proton radius from ep scattering data Let me start with the punchline: We can get R E of anywhere from 0.84 fm to 0.89 fm (depending on our fit function) We fit all 1422 cross sections of the MAMI data We properly float the 31 normalization constants We only accept fits that give a reduced χ 2 < 1.14 We properly deal with two-photon exchange Our fits give form factors that are well behaved at large Q 2 Our fits do not give unphysical charge distributions Our fits do not allow for unphysical hooks in the form factors for Q 2 < (even Ingo should be happy) We conclude that any R E between 0.84 and 0.89 fm is consistent with the scattering data

ECT* Proton Radius Workshop Trento 2016 Eric Hessels & Marko Horbatsch York University Toronto Canada 15 As another warm-up exercise, fit the lowest Q 2 MAMI data to see if it is approximately fit by two single-paramerter models (Later, include all Q 2 to ensure that the fit used for the extrapolation is consistent with all of the MAMI data) One-parameter models for G E 2, G M 2 : (1) Linear in z: (2) Dipole model: Need to fit to a model to G E 2, G M 2 to extrapolate the data to Q 2 =0 Fits must also determine normalization constants – leads to flexibility in the extrapolation Other best fits give a reduced χ 2 of about 1.14, so we reject any fits that give χ 2 > 1.14 Evaluating the proton radius from ep scattering data

ECT* Proton Radius Workshop Trento 2016 Eric Hessels & Marko Horbatsch York University Toronto Canada 19 The fits are extended to higher Q 2 by replacing the single parameter for each form factor with a cubic spline The constants b E and b M are replaced by cubic splines (continuous function and derivative) for z > 0.1 Only fits with a reduced χ 2 < 1.14 are included – and all fits give 0.84 fm < R E < 0.85 fm 10-knot spline (11-parameter G E ) of all of the MAMI data still gives R E ~0.84 fm, χ 2 < 1.14 Evaluating the proton radius from ep scattering data constant b E, b M

ECT* Proton Radius Workshop Trento 2016 Eric Hessels & Marko Horbatsch York University Toronto Canada 24 Evaluating the proton radius from ep scattering data I haven’t mentioned it, but, of course, our fits also give values for the R M. Dipole fit gives R E 2 +R M 2 =1.349(4) Linear fit gives R E 2 +R M 2 =1.553(4) Both compare reasonably well with 1.39(10) from hydrogen and muonic hydrogen hfs We conclude that any R E between 0.84 and 0.89 fm is possible from scattering data
