Comparison of Polarization Observables in Electron Scattering from the Proton and Deuteron

Journal Article · · Phys Rev Lett 80, 452 (1998)
Recoil proton polarization observables were measured for both the p(e,e'p) and d(e,e'p)n reactions at two values of Q2 using a newly commissioned proton focal plane polarimeter at the MIT-Bates Linear Accelerator Center. The hydrogen and deuterium spin-depended observables Dll and Dl, the induced polarization Pn, and the form factor ratio Gpe/Gpm were measured under identical kinematics. The deuterium and hydrogen results are in good agreement with each other and with the plane-wave impulse approximation (PWIA).
