Neutron charge form factor and quadrupole deformation of the nucleon
Abstract
Description
A quark model relation between the neutron charge form factor and the N->Delta charge quadrupole form factor is used to predict the C2/M1 ratio in the N->Delta 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.
