Abstract: The electromagnetic form factors of the nucleon provide experimental access to the underlying charge and magnetic moment distributions of protons and neutrons that are generated predominantly by the strong force interaction. These form factors provide excellent testing grounds for QCD and QCD-inspired models and are fundamentally important in understanding non-perturbative strong force physics. When studied over a broad range of momentum transfers, they provide insight into the underlying mechanisms relevant to nucleon structure. For a region of sufficiently high momentum transfer in particular, a transition to scaling behavior dependent on the quark and gluon degrees of freedom is expected
In this talk, I will provide an overview of our experiment of elastic nucleon form factors at high Q2, compare them with current theoretical models, and discuss upcoming future measurements of the Super Bigbite program at Jefferson Lab.
