Neutron Electromagnetic Form Factors

Abstract

The nucleon electromagnetic form factors have been studied in the past extensively from unpolarized electron scattering experiments. With the development in polarized beam, recoil polarimetry, and polarized target technologies, polarization experiments have provided more precise data on these quantities. In this talk, I review recent experimental progress on this subject.
