Spectral functions of electromagnetic and axial nucleon form factors: 3π-continua at low energies — •Norbert Kaiser1 and Emilie Passemar2 — 1Physik Department T39, TU München — 2Department of Physics, Indiana University, Bloomington, USA
We study the imaginary parts of the isoscalar electromagnetic and isovector axial form factors of the nucleon close to the 3π-threshold in covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory. At the two-loop level, the contributions arising from leading and next-to-leading order chiral π N-vertices, as well as pion-induced excitations of virtual Δ(1232)-isobars, are calculated. It is found that the heavy baryon treatment overestimates substantially these 3π-continua. From a phenomenological analysis, that includes the narrow
ω(783)-resonance or the broad a1-resonance, one can recognize small windows near threshold, where chiral 3π-dynamics prevails. However, in the case of the isoscalar electromagnetic form factors GE,Ms(t), the radiative correction provided by the
π0γ-intermediate state turns out to be more significant therein.
