Title: First measurement of proton's charge form factor at very low Q2 with initial state radiation

Abstract

Here we report on a new experimental method based on initial-state radiation (ISR) in e–pscattering, which exploits the radiative tail of the elastic peak to study the properties of electromagnetic processes and to extract the proton charge form factor (G$$p\atop{E}$$) at extremely small Q2. The ISR technique was implemented in an experiment at the three-spectrometer facility of the Mainz Microtron (MAMI). This led to a precise validation of radiative corrections far away from elastic line and provided first measurements of G$$p\atop{E}$$ for 0.001 ≤Q2≤0.004 (GeV/c)2.
