Magnetic radius of the deuteron

Journal Article ·
OSTI ID:755900
The root-mean square radius of the deuteron magnetic moment distribution, r{sub Md}, is calculated for several realistic models of the NN-interaction. For the Paris potential the result is r{sub Md} = 2.312 {+-} 0.010 fm. The dependence of r{sub Md} on the choice of NN model, relativistic effects and meson exchange currents is investigated. The experimental value of r{sub Md} is also considered. The necessity of new precise measurements of the deuteron magnetic form factor at low values of Q{sup 2} is stressed.
