The ratio of the proton's elastic electromagnetic form factors $G_{Ep}/G_{Mp}$ was obtained by measuring $P_{t}$ and $P_{\ell}$, the transverse and longitudinal recoil proton polarization, respectively. For the elastic reaction $\vec e p…
The beam-normal single-spin asymmetry, $B_n$, exists in the scattering of high energy electrons, polarized transverse to their direction of motion, from nuclear targets. To first order, this asymmetry is caused by the interference of the…
