A series of high precision measurements on the N ->Delta transition
involving polarized beams, out-of-plane detection and focal plane
polarimetry in the H((e) over bar, e’p)pi(0) and H((e) over bar,
e’pi(+))n channels have been pursued at Bates during the last three
years. They are geared towards the precise determination of the
quadrupole amplitudes in the N -> Delta transition and the isolation of
the coherent, competing processes at low Q(2)
