Radiative Corrections to the PREX and QWEAK Experiments

Published 15 Nov 2011 in nucl-th and nucl-ex | (1111.3681v1)

Abstract: The high precision parity violating electron scattering experiments PREX and QWEAK are sensitive to radiative corrections. In this paper we introduce the PREX experiment that measures the neutron radius of $^{208}$Pb and discuss coulomb distortion corrections. We then discuss dispersion corrections for QWEAK that aims to measure the weak charge of the proton.
