Measurement of the Proton Electromagnetic Form Factors via the Spin Transfer Reaction

Journal Article · · Nuclear Physics A
OSTI ID:793196
The ratio of the electromagnetic form factors of the proton has been measured at the Jefferson Laboratory at Q{sup 2} values ranging from 0.5 GeV{sup 2} up to 3.5 GeV{sup 2}. The experiment used the recently commissioned Hall A Focal Plane Polarimeter (FPP) to measure the polarization of the recoiling proton in elastic scattering of longitudinally polarized electrons on a liquid hydrogen target.
