Contributions to the nucleon form factors from bubble and tadpole diagrams

Abstract

The nonlocal chiral effective theory is applied to investigate the electromagnetic and strange form factors of nucleon. The bubble and tadpole diagrams are included in the calculation. With the contributions from bubble and tadpole diagrams, the obtained electromagnetic form factors are close to the results without these contributions as long as the low energy constants $c_1$ and $c_2$ are properly chosen, while the magnitudes of strange form factors become larger. Both the electromagnetic and strange form factors are still in good agreement with the experimental data.
