New precise results of a measurement the elastic electron-proton scattering cross section performed at Mainz Microtron MAMI are presented. About 1400 sections were measured with negative four-momentum transfers squared up to Q^2=1 (GeV/c)^2 statistical errors below 0.2%. The electric and magnetic form factors proton extracted by fits large variety factor models directly sections. show some features scale pion cloud. charge radii determined be r_E=0.879(5)(stat.)(4)(syst.)(2)(model)(4)(group)...
This paper describes a precise measurement of electron scattering off the proton at momentum transfers $0.003\ensuremath{\lesssim}{Q}^{2}\ensuremath{\lesssim}1$ ${\mathrm{GeV}}^{2}$. The average point-to-point error cross sections in this experiment is $\ensuremath{\sim}0.37%$. These data are used for coherent new analysis together with all world unpolarized and polarized from very smallest to highest so far measured. extracted electric magnetic form factors provide insight into their exact...
A massive, but light, Abelian U(1) gauge boson is a well-motivated possible signature of physics beyond the standard model particle physics. In this Letter, search for signal such in electron-positron pair production at spectrometer setup A1 Collaboration Mainz Microtron described. Exclusion limits mass range 40 MeV/c2 to 300 MeV/c2, with sensitivity squared mixing parameter as little ε2=8×10−7 are presented. large fraction space has been excluded where discrepancy measured anomalous...
A new exclusion limit for the electromagnetic production of a light $U(1)$ gauge boson ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ decaying to ${e}^{+}{e}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ was determined by A1 Collaboration at Mainz Microtron. Such bosons appear in several extensions standard model and are also discussed as candidates interaction dark matter with matter. In electron scattering from heavy nucleus, existing limits narrow state coupling were reduced nearly an order magnitude range lepton pair...

We perform a systematic study of the α-particle excitation from its ground state 0_{1}^{+} to 0_{2}^{+} resonance. The so-called monopole transition form factor is investigated via an electron scattering experiment in broad Q^{2} range (from 0.5 5.0 fm^{-2}). precision new data dramatically supersedes that older sets data, each covering only portion range. allow determination two coefficients low-momentum expansion, leading puzzle. By confronting state-of-the-art theoretical calculations, we...
We report on a new experimental method based initial-state radiation (ISR) in e–p scattering, which exploits the radiative tail of elastic peak to study properties electromagnetic processes and extract proton charge form factor (GEp) at extremely small Q2. The ISR technique was implemented an experiment three-spectrometer facility Mainz Microtron (MAMI). This led precise validation corrections far away from line provided first measurements GEp for 0.001≤Q2≤0.004(GeV/c)2.

By refining external energy corrections we have achieved an outstanding description radiative tail, essential detailed investigation finite-size effects measured cross sections.
