Neutron electric form factor at large momentum transfer

Nuclear Theory 2009-11-07 v1

Abstract

Based on the recent, high precision data for elastic electron scattering from protons and deuterons, at relatively large momentum transfer Q2Q^2, we determine the neutron electric form factor up to Q2=3.5Q^2=3.5 GeV2^2. The values obtained from the data (in the framework of the nonrelativistic impulse approximation) are larger than commonly assumed and are in good agreement with the Gari-Kr\"umpelmann parametrization of the nucleon electromagnetic form factors.
