Spectral functions of isoscalar scalar and isovector electromagnetic form factors of the nucleon at two-loop order — •Norbert Kaiser — Physik Department T39, Technische Universität München, D-85747 Garching, Germany

We calculate the imaginary parts of the isoscalar scalar and isovector electromagnetic form factors of the nucleon up to two-loop order in chiral perturbation theory. Particular attention is paid on the correct behavior of Im σN(t) and Im GE,MV(t) at the two-pion threshold t0=4 mπ2 in connection with the non-relativistic 1/M-expansion. We recover the well-known strong enhancement near threshold originating from the nearby anomalous singularity at tc = 4mπ2mπ4/M2 = 3.98 mπ2. In the case of the scalar spectral function Im σN(t) one finds a significant improvement in comparison to the lowest order one-loop result. Higher order ππ-rescattering effects are however still necessary to close a remaining 20%-gap to the empirical scalar spectral function. The isovector electric and magnetic spectral functions Im GE,MV(t) get additionally enhanced near threshold by the two-pion-loop contributions. After supplementing their two-loop results by a phenomenological ρ-meson exchange term one can reproduce the empirical isovector electric and magnetic spectral functions fairly well.
