The deuteron form factors are calculated in the framework of the relativistic nucleon-meson dynamics. The relativistic effects change considerably the S- and D-waves of the deuteron, result in the dominating extra component in the deuteron…
We calculate expressions for the quadrupole moments of nonstrange baryons in which the number of QCD color charges is N_c. Using only the assumption of single-photon exchange, we obtain 4 relations among the 6 moments, and show how all of…
Photo disintegration of the deuteron and photo pionproduction on the deuteron are described in the region of the $\Delta$-resonance. The two reactions are unitarily coupled. A novel definition of electromagnetic exchange currents in the…

The effect of "anomalous" scattering of neutrons and electrons from protons in the electron-volt energy-transfer range is considered, and related experimental results are mentioned. A recent independent confirmation of this effect with a…
A theory of neutron scattering by magnetic materials is reviewed with emphasis on the use of electronic multipoles that have universal appeal, because they are amenable to calculation and appear in theories of many other experimental…
An alternate method is described to extract the quark contribution to the spin of the nucleon directly from the first moment of the deuteron structure function, $g^d_1$. It is obtained without recourse to the use of input on the nucleon…
Mirror isobars $^7$Li and $^7$Be are investigated in a dicluster model. The magnetic dipole moments and the magnetic dipole response to the continuum are calculated in this framework. The magnetic contribution is found to be small with…
The deuteron ``D'' is the simplest nucleus with the spin S=1, therefore its electromagnetic structure is completely described by three different, the charge $G_C(t)$, magnetic $G_M(t)$ and quadrupole $G_Q(t)$ form factors, where $t=-q^2$ is…
