Prospect for Measuring G{sup n}{sub E} at High Momentum Transfers

Conference ·
OSTI ID:802908
Experiment E02-013, approved by PAC21, will measure the neutron electric form factor at Q{sup 2} up to 3.4 (GeV/c){sup 2}, which is twice that achieved to date. The main features of the new experiment will be the use of the electron spectrometer BigBite, a large array of neutron detectors, and a polarized {sup 3}[vec]He target. We present the parameters and optimization of the experimental setup. A concept of an experiment for G{sup n}{sub E} where precision G{sup p}{sub E} data is used for calibration of the systematics of a Rosenbluth type measurement is also discussed.
