The electric and magnetic form factors of the neutron with super BigBite
Electromagnetic form factors provide experimental access to information about the underlying quark charge and magnetic moment distributions of the nucleon. By performing measurements of these form factors and comparing them to theories containing important aspects of QCD, we gain insight into the generation nucleon structure. Measurements of the form factors of the neutron are generally over a smaller range of Q2 compared to that of the proton, but are are equally as important to complete our picture of the nucleon. Presented are two approved experiments using the proposed Super Bigbite spectrometer which will extend these measurements to a range of Q2 comparable to that of the present proton form factors as well as with comparable precision.
