Comment on "High-Precision Determination of the Electric and Magnetic Form Factors of the Proton"
Abstract
In a recent Letter, Bernauer, et al. present fits to the proton electromagnetic form factors, GEp(Q2) and GMp(Q2), along with extracted proton charge and magnetization radii based on large set of new, high statistical precision (<0.2%) cross section measurements. The Coulomb corrections they apply differ dramatically from more modern and complete calculations, implying significant error in their final results.
