Simple parametrization of nucleon form factors

Abstract

This Brief Report provides simple parametrizations of the nucleon electromagnetic form factors using functions of ${Q}^{2}$ that are consistent with dimensional scaling at high ${Q}^{2}$. Good fits require only four parameters each for ${G}_{Ep}$, ${G}_{Mp}$, and ${G}_{Mn}$ and only two for ${G}_{En}$.
