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 $T_{20}(q)$ observables at $q\le 6$ fm${}^{-1}$ essentially probe momentum components up to $\simeq 4m_{\pi }$.
