Zemach moments of the proton from Bayesian inference
Abstract
The first and the third Zemach moments are obtained, <r> (2 )=1.1108 ±0.0021 fm and <r3>(2 )=2.889 ±0.008 fm3, from the Bayesian analysis of the elastic e p scattering data. The quantitative discussion of the dependence of the results on the parametrization choice is presented and the corresponding systematic uncertainties are estimated—about 0.6% and 1.6% for the first and the third Zemach moments, respectively.
