Precise neutron magnetic form factors

Precise data on the neutron magnetic form factor Gmn have been obtained with measurements of the ratio of cross sections of D(e, en) and D(e, ep) up to momentum transfers of Q 2 = 0.9 (GeV/c) 2 . Data with typical uncertainties of 1.5% are presented. These data allow for the first time to extract a precise value of the magnetic radius of the neutron.  2002 Elsevier

The neutron charge form factor and target analyzing powers from 3He(e→,e′n) scattering

The charge form factor of the neutron has been determined from asymmetries measured in quasi-elastic 3 (He) over right arrow((e) over right arrow, e`n) at a momentum transfer of 0.67 (GeV/c)(2). In addition, the target analyzing power, A(y)(0), has been measured to study effects of final state interactions and meson exchange currents.

Measurement of the electric form factor of the neutron at Q 2 = 0.3-0.8 (GeV/ c) 2 ⋆

Abstract.The electric form factor of the neutron, GE,n, has been measured at the Mainz Microtron by recoil polarimetry in the quasielastic D(¯e, e’¯n)p reaction. Three data points have been extracted at squared four-momentum transfers Q2 = 0.3, 0.6 and 0.8 (GeV/c)2. Corrections for nuclear binding effects have been applied.

Polarization transfer in the 4He(e→, e′ p→)3H reaction

We have measured the proton recoil polarization in the {sup 4}He(polarized-e, e-prime, p){sup 3}H reaction at Q{sup 2} = 0.5, 1.0, 1.6, and 2.6 (GeV/c){sup 2}. The measured ratio of polarization transfer coefficients differs from a fully relativistic calculation, favoring the inclusion of a predicted medium modification of the proton form factors based on a quark-meson coupling model. In contrast, the measured induced polarizations agree reasonably well with the fully relativistic calculation indicating that the treatment of final-state interactions is under control.

First determination of generalized polarizabilities of the proton by a virtual compton scattering experiment.

Absolute differential cross sections for the reaction (e+p ->e+p+gamma) have been measured at a four-momentum transfer with virtuality Q^2=0.33 GeV^2 and polarization \epsilon = 0.62 in the range 33.6 to 111.5 MeV/c for the momentum of the outgoing photon in the photon-proton center of mass frame. The experiment has been performed with the high resolution spectrometers at the Mainz Microtron MAMI. From the photon angular distributions, two structure functions which are a linear combination of the generalized polarizabilities have been determined for the first time.

High-momentum components in the 1p orbitals of 16O

Abstract We have investigated that part of the proton momentum distribution of 16O that is linked through the (e, e′p) reaction to low-lying discrete states in 15N. The MAMI facility with its new generation of 100%-duty-cycle electron accelerator has allowed to cover in this experiment the previously not accessible momentum range of 265

The focal plane proton-polarimeter for the 3-spectrometer setup at MAMI

Abstract For ( e → , e ′ p → ) experiments the 3-spectrometer setup of the A1 collaboration at MAMI has been supplemented by a focal plane proton-polarimeter. To this end, a carbon analyzer of variable thickness and two double-planes of horizontal drift chambers have been added to the standard detector system of Spectrometer A. Due to the spin precession in the spectrometer magnets, all three polarization components at the target can be measured simultaneously. The performance of the polarimeter has been studied using elastic p ( e → , e ′ p → ) scattering.
