Neutron Charge Form Factor and Quadrupole Deformation of the Nucleon∗
نویسنده
چکیده
A quark model relation between the neutron charge form factor and the N → ∆ charge quadrupole form factor is used to predict the C2/M1 ratio in the N → ∆ transition from the elastic neutron form factor data. Excellent agreement with the electro-pionproduction data is found, indicating the validity of the suggested relation. The implication of the negative C2/M1 ratio for the intrinsic deformation of the nucleon is discussed.

Empirical Transverse Charge Densities in the Nucleon and the Nucleon-to-∆ Transition
Using only the current empirical information on the nucleon electromagnetic form factors we map out the transverse charge density in proton and neutron as viewed from a light front moving towards a transversely polarized nucleon. These charge densities are characterized by a dipole pattern, in addition to the monopole field corresponding with the unpolarized density. Furthermore, we use the lat...
متن کاملDifferent Magnetic Field Distributions in Deformed Neutron Stars
In this work, we review the formalism which would allow us to model magnetically deformed neutron stars. We study the effect of different magnetic field configurations on the equation of state (EoS) and the structure of such stars. For this aim, the EoS of magnetars is acquired by using the lowest order constraint variational (LOCV) method and employing the AV18 potential....
متن کاملNucleon Deformation and Atomic Spectroscopy
Recent ineleastic electron-proton scattering experiments have led to rather accurate values for the N → ∆ transition quadrupole moment Q N →∆. The experimental results imply a prolate (cigar-shaped) intrinsic deformation of the nucleon. The nonsphericity of the proton's charge distribution might be seen in the spectrum of atomic hydrogen. The possibilities and limitations for determining the ge...
متن کاملIsospin Effect on the Process of Multifragmentation and Dissipation at Intermediate Energy Heavy Ion Collisions
In the simulation of intermediate energy heavy ion collisions by using the isospin dependent quantum molecular dynamics, the isospin effect on the process of multifragmentation and dissipation has been studied. It is found that the multiplicity of intermediate mass fragments Nimf for the neutron-poor colliding system is always larger than that for the neutron-rich system, while the quadrupole o...

The neutron charge form factor G En (q) is determined from an analysis of the deuteron quadrupole form factor F C2 (q) data. Recent calculations, based on a variety of different model interactions and currents, indicate that the contributions associated with the uncertain two-body operators of shorter range are relatively small for F C2 (q), even at large momentum transfer q. Hence, G En (q) ca...
