Abstract

We present a dispersion theoretical analysis of recent date from electron-proton scattering. This allows for a high-precision extraction of the electric and magnetic radius of the proton, r_E = (0.839± 0.002^+0.002_-0.003)~fm and r_M = (0.846± 0.001^+0.001_-0.005)~fm, where the first error refers to the statistical type estimated from the bootstrap method, and the second one refers to the systematic uncertainty related to the underlying spectral functions.
