Title: Comment on the deuteron structure function A (q/sup 2/) at high momentum transfers

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)

Calculations of A (q/sup 2/) were performed for various NN potentials and electromagnetic nucleon form factors at q/sup 2/=0--160 fm/sup -2/ with inclusion of isobar configurations and meson exchange currents, indicating that recent elastic electron scattering experiments do not rule out the existence of isobar configurations and meson exchange currents in the deuteron as has been conjectured.
