Measurements of the neutron electric to magnetic form factor ratio GEn/GMn via the ^2H(\vec{e},e'\vec{n})^1H reaction to Q^2 = 1.45 (GeV/c)^2

Abstract

We report values for the neutron electric to magnetic form factor ratio, GEn/GMn, deduced from measurements of the neutron's recoil polarization in the quasielastic 2H(\vec{e},e'\vec{n})1H reaction, at three Q^2 values of 0.45, 1.13, and 1.45 (GeV/c)^2. The data at Q^2 = 1.13 and 1.45 (GeV/c)^2 are the first direct experimental measurements of GEn employing polarization degrees of freedom in the Q^2 > 1 (GeV/c)^2 region and stand as the most precise determinations of GEn for all values of Q^2.
