Abstract

This paper calculates the elastic form factors for nucleons based on generalized parton distributions using an extended new ansatz introduced in http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevC.105.025202 (Phys. Rev. C 105, no.2, 025202 (2022)). Different parton distribution functions (PDFs) are considered, and modifications are made to the free parameters of the new ansatz. The obtained results are systematically compared among the combinations of different PDFs and ansatzes for high ranges of momentum transfer, with $-t < 35 GeV^{-2}$. The minimum suitable parameters are used to parametrize the model. After obtaining the form factors, we proceed to compute the electric radius and the transversely unpolarized densities for the nucleon. In addition, we derive the parton distribution functions (PDFs) that depend on the impact parameter. Finally, we analyze the results by comparing them with the findings from other research and experimental data.
