Abstract
In order to measure the charge form factor of the neutron, GnE(Q2), one needs to use a neutron bound in a nuclear target. We calculate the change in the form factor for a neutron bound in 3He, with respect to the free case, using several versions of the quark meson coupling model. It is found that the form factor may be suppressed by as much as 12% at Q2 = 0.5GeV2 with respect to that of the free neutron.
