Lachniet, J. et al. (2009) Precise measurement of the neutron magnetic form factor G(M)(n) in the Few-GeV(2) region. Physical Review Letters, 102(19), (doi: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.102.192001)

Abstract

The neutron elastic magnetic form factor was extracted from quasielastic electron scattering on deuterium over the range Q(2)=1.0-4.8 GeV(2) with the CLAS detector at Jefferson Lab. High precision was achieved with a ratio technique and a simultaneous in situ calibration of the neutron detection efficiency. Neutrons were detected with electromagnetic calorimeters and time-of-flight scintillators at two beam energies. The dipole parametrization gives a good description of the data.
