Title: Measurement of the ratio of the proton's electric to magnetic form factors by recoil polarization

Conference ·
OSTI ID:804144

The longitudinal and transverse polarizations of the outgoing proton were measured for the reaction {sup 1}H(e,e' p) at four-momentum transfer squared of 0.5 to 3.5 GeV{sup 2}. The ratio of the electric to magnetic form factors of the proton is proportional to the ratio of the transverse to longitudinal polarizations.
