Magnetic Radius of the Deuteron
The root-mean square radius of the deuteron magnetic moment distribution, , is calculated for several realistic models of the --interaction.
For the Paris potential the result is fm. The
dependence of on the choice of model, relativistic effects and
meson exchange currents is investigated. The experimental value of is
also considered. The necessity of new precise measurements of the deuteron
magnetic form factor at low values of is stressed.Comment: 4 pages, RevTe
Relativistic Charge Form Factor of the Deuteron
Relativistic integral representation in terms of experimental neutron-proton
scattering phase shifts alone is used to compute the charge form factor of the
deuteron . The results of numerical calculations of

squared . Zero and the prominent secondary maximum
in are the direct consequences of the change of sign in the
experimental - phase shifts. Till the point the
total relativistic correction to is positive and reaches the
maximal value of 25% at .Comment: 9 pages, LaTeX, 2 postscript figures, uses wor-sci.sty, epsf.st
Large Logarithms in the Beam Normal Spin Asymmetry of Elastic Electron--Proton Scattering
We study a parity-conserving single-spin beam asymmetry of elastic
electron-proton scattering induced by an absorptive part of the two-photon
exchange amplitude. It is demonstrated that excitation of inelastic hadronic
intermediate states by the consecutive exchange of two photons leads to
logarithmic and double-logarithmic enhancement due to contributions of hard
collinear quasi-real photons. The asymmetry at small electron scattering angles
is expressed in terms of the total photoproduction cross section on the proton,
and is predicted to reach the magnitude of 20-30 parts per million. At these
conditions and fixed 4-momentum transfers, the asymmetry is rising
logarithmically with increasing electron beam energy, following the high-energy
diffractive behavior of total photoproduction cross section on the proton.Comment: 10 pages, 6 figures; typos fixed, a reference adde
Scaling and Duality in Semi-exclusive Processes
We discuss extending scaling and duality studies to semi-exclusive processes.
We show that semi-exclusive hard pion photoproduction should exhibit scaling
behavior in kinematic regions where the photon and pion both interact directly
with the same quark. We show that such kinematic regions exist. We also show
that the constancy with changing momentum transfer of the resonance
peak/scaling curve ratio, familiar for many resonances in deep inelastic
scattering, is also expected in the semi-exclusive case.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, submitted to Phys.Rev.
Improved radiative corrections for (e,e'p) experiments: Beyond the peaking approximation and implications of the soft-photon approximation
Analysing (e,e'p) experimental data involves corrections for radiative
effects which change the interaction kinematics and which have to be carefully
considered in order to obtain the desired accuracy. Missing momentum and energy
due to bremsstrahlung have so far always been calculated using the peaking
approximation which assumes that all bremsstrahlung is emitted in the direction
of the radiating particle. In this article we introduce a full angular Monte
Carlo simulation method which overcomes this approximation. The angular
distribution of the bremsstrahlung photons is reconstructed from H(e,e'p) data.
Its width is found to be underestimated by the peaking approximation and
described much better by the approach developed in this work.Comment: 11 pages, 13 figure
