Transverse Charge Distribution of Hadrons
This work is done by the Nuclear Physics Group at the CUA, together with Dr. Gerald A. Miller, from the University of Washington.
According to Siddharth Venkat, 2010, having the form factor F(Q^2) of a particle it is possible to simplify the calculation of its two-dimensional transverse density using the finite radius approximation.
In this work we are going to calculate the transverse charge distribution of Pions. As a first step for this calculation, we are reproducing the Proton charge distribution from Siddharth Venkat, 2010.

The experimental data and the fit given by [Siddharth Venkat, 2010] for G_e and G_m are shown in the following figures:
