Prologue: All about the proton
Proton: our playground
Nucleon is the basic building block of atomic nuclei.
Its internal structure, arising from the underlying quark and gluon constituents, determines its mass, spin, and interactions.
These, in turn, determine the fundamental properties of the nuclei.
Furthermore, proton, as the only stable hadron, provides us the unique opportunity to explore its static properties up to very high precision.
Using photon as probe
Since the quark carries the electric charge and photon does not participate the strong interaction, the photon is a very good probe.

Oedipus answered: "Man”.
"What looks like a single particle in low Q2, a bond state of heavy constituents in the middle and a bag of sands at high Q2?".

To completely understand the properties of the proton from QCD is our Holy Grail …..
Devil is near….
With the recent development of the polarization technology, many experiments can reach record-breaking precision.
However when experimentalists march, a devil is approaching in silence…
We think we know many things about the proton precisely, but do we?

Tree Level is not enough!
The strange form factors are found to be very small, just few percents.
To make sure the extracted values are accurate, it is necessary to take the radiative correction into consideration!
So one has to draw many diagrams as follows…..
Electroweak radiative corrections
Squeeze eq→eq amplitudes into 4-Fermion contact interactions
Extraction of strange form factors with radiative corrections
ρ and κ are from electroweak radiative corrections
Strange form factors
Be aware of the Box!
Box diagram is intricate because it is related with nucleon intermediate states.
Box diagram is special because of its complicated Q2 and ε
dependence
So Can one squeeze the box diagrams into a point?

Act 4: The puzzle on the size of the proton
Lamb shift of hydrogen (1947)
According to the hydrogen Dirac equation solution, the energy levels of 2p1/2 state is same with the energy level of 2s1/2 . However, in 1947, Willis Lamb discovered that this was not so - that the 2p1/2 state is slightly lower than the 2s1/2 state resulting in a slight shift of the corresponding spectral line.
82
The size of proton and Lamb shift
The Lamb shift is the splitting of an energy level caused by vacuum polarization and other higher order radiative corrections.
The excellent agreement between experimental data and the QED calculation has been seen as the greatest triumph of QED.
However as the experimental technique develops the effect of finite size of the proton becomes non-negligible
such that the measurement of Lamb shift provides information of the charge radius of the proton.
83
The size of the proton?
From measurement of hydrogen Lamb shift:
From low Q2 ep elastic scattering data
Charge Radius
Muonic hydrogen
The muon is about 200 times heavier than the electron Therefore, the atomic Bohr radius of muonic hydrogen is smaller than in ordinary hydrogen.
The μp Lamb shift, ΔE(2P-2S) ≈ 0.2 eV, is dominated by vacuum polarization which shifts the 2S binding energy towards more negative values . The relative contribution of the proton size to ΔE(2P-2S) is as much as 1.8%, two orders of magnitude more than for normal hydrogen atoms.
Thus, the measurement of the Lamb shift of muonic hydrogen is expected to provide the more accurate value.
85
Muonic hydrogen Spectrum
How to calculate it?
To calculate the theoretical shift corresponding to the measured transition, some have used perturbation theory with non-relativistic wave-functions to predict the size of the contributing effects, including relativistic effects.
Alternatively one can use the Dirac equation for the muon with the appropriate potential as an effective approximation to the two-particle Bethe-Saltpeter equation to calculate the perturbed wave-functions
Hard work for 40 years This kind of measurement has been considered for over 40
years, but only recent developements in laser technology and muon beams made it feasible to carry it out
The experiment is located at a new beam‐line for low‐energy (5keV) muons of the proton accelerator at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) in Switzerlan
88
Surprisingly new result The transition frequency between 2P3/2 and 1S1/2 is
obtained to be Δν = 49881.88(77) GHz , corresponding to an energy difference of ΔE = 206.2949(32) meV
Theory predicts a value of ΔE = 209.9779(49) ‐ 5.2262 rp² + 0.0347 rp³ meV
[rp in fm] This results in a proton radius of rp = 0.84184(36) fm
4% smaller than the previous best estimate, which has been the average of many different measurements made over the years.
89
90
To match the 2010 value with the CODATA value, an additional term of0.31meV would be required in the QED equation. This corresponds to 64 times its claimed uncertainty!
Surprisingly new result

Third Zeemach moment
If GE is dipole form
Four possibilities
The experimental results are not right. The relevant QED calculations are incorrect. There is, at extremely low energies and at
the level of accuracy of the `p-atom experiments, physics beyond the standard model“.
A single-dipole form factor is not adequate to the analysis of precise low-energy data.
Controversy about Third Zeemach moment
De Rújula pointed out that if the proton’s third Zemach moment is very large the discrepancy between the two results can be removed. He used some “toy model” and obtained the result:
His number is 13 times larger than the experimental extraction of Friar and Sick, who use electron-proton scattering data to determine:
Controversy about Third Zeemach moment
Clöt and Miller show that published parametrizations, which take into account a wide variety of electron scattering data, cannot account for the value of the third Zemach moment found . They concluded that enhancing the Zemach moment significantly above the dipole result is extremely unlikely.
Controversy about Third Zeemach moment
However De Rújula still argued that there is possible to make third Zeemach large and not ruled out by the ep data.His argument based on the fact thatThere is no data corresponds to the
A result based on those data has to be an extrapolation of data with a large spread and a poor χ2 per degree of freedom.

New Physics?
V. Barger Cheng-Wei Chiang, Wai-Yee Keung, and Danny Marfatia5 explore the possibility that new scalar, pseudoscalar, vector, axial-vector, and tensor flavor-conserving nonuniversal interactions may be responsible for the discrepancy. They consider exotic particles that among leptons, couple preferentially to muons and find that the many constraints from low energy data disfavor new spin-0, spin-1 and spin-2 particles as an explanation.
Phys.Rev.Lett.106:153001,2011
Conclusion and Outlook
TBE are crucial for the extraction of the EM form factors and strangeness inside the nucleon!
More delicate estimate of the TBE effect is needed badly! (including more resonances, consider quark-level contributions…….)
Upcoming positron-proton scattering will provide us the precious information of TPE effects.
Uncertainty of TBE may jeopardize the interpretation of QWEAK data and requests an answer.
Epilogue: Current status of TBE physics
Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.
