The EMFFs of hyperons can also help to understand those of nucleons as they are connected with the flavor SU(3) symmetry. The EMFFs of nucleons can be measured in both spacelike and timelike regions. However, it is difficult to probe the EMFFs of hyperons in spacelike region due to the unstable nature of hyperons. By means of electron-positron annihilation, the EMFFs of hyperons in timelike region is accessible via the production of hyperon-antihyperon pair. The timelike EMFFs of the isospin triplet \u03a3 hyperons measured at Babar, CLEO-c and BESIII experiments are reviewed in this paper. Besides, the relevant theoretical discussion based on the experimental results are also presented.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/sym14010069","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,9]],"date-time":"2022-01-09T23:35:09Z","timestamp":1641771309000},"page":"69","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Electromagnetic Form Factors of \u03a3 Hyperons"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1063-6438","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Muzaffar","family":"Irshad","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Modern Physics, University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei 230026, China"},{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Particle Detection and Electronics, Hefei 230026, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0853-1792","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dong","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Modern Physics, University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei 230026, China"},{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Particle Detection and Electronics, Hefei 230026, China"},{"name":"Helmholtz Institute Mainz, D-55099 Mainz, Germany"},{"name":"GSI Helmholtzcentre for Heavy Ion Research GmbH, D-64291 Darmstadt, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7671-7644","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Xiaorong","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Modern Physics, University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei 230026, China"},{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Particle Detection and Electronics, Hefei 230026, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7510-3181","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Guangshun","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Modern Physics, University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei 230026, China"},{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Particle Detection and Electronics, Hefei 230026, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"112001","DOI":"10.1103\/PhysRevLett.99.112001","article-title":"Charge densities of the neutron and proton","volume":"99","author":"Miller","year":"2007","journal-title":"Phys.
