Furthermore two-quark correlations are modeled as a series of quark loops in the scalar and axialvector channel. The resulting reduced Faddeev equations are solved for nucleon and delta. Nucleon electromagnetic form factors are calculated in a fully covariant and gauge--invariant scheme. Whereas the proton electric form factor $G_E$ and the nucleon magnetic moments are described correctly, the neutron electric form factor and the ratio $G_E/G_M$ for the proton appear to be quenched. The influence of vector mesons on the form factors is investigated which amounts to a 25 percent modification of the electromagnetic proton radii within this framework.28 pages, 10 figures, 4 tablesHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyNuclear TheoryNucleon form factors from a covariant quark core: limits in their descriptiontext
