Recent progress on nucleon form factors

Abstract

The form factors of the nucleon provide key information on nucleon properties. When confronted with precisely measured observables from experiments, they serve as benchmark quantities for lattice calculations. On the other hand lattice determinations may serve as vital theory input for the interpretation of experiments, e.g. in neutrino-nucleus scattering. I review recent progress in the calculation of nucleon form factors on the lattice and its relevance to future experiments.
