Elastic e-d Scattering Data and the Deuteron Wave Function

Abstract

What range of momentum components in the deuteron wave function are available e d elastic scattering data sensitive to ? This question is addressed within the context of a model calculation of the deuteron form factors, based on realistic interactions and currents. It is shown that the data on the A(q), B(q), and T20(q) observables at q ≤ 6 fm-1 essentially probe momentum components up to 4 mπ.
