Title: Neutron Charge Form Factor at Large Q{sup 2 }

Journal Article · · Phys.Rev. C64 (2001) 041002
OSTI ID:787035

The neutron charge form factor G{sub En}(q) is determined from an analysis of the deuteron quadrupole form factor F{sub C2}(q) data. Recent calculations, based on a variety of different model interactions and currents, indicate that the contributions associated with the uncertain two-body operators of shorter range are relatively small for F{sub C2}(q), even at large momentum transfer q. Hence, G{sub En}(q) can be extracted from F{sub C2}(q) at large q{sup 2} without undue systematic uncertainties from theory.
