    Measurement of Tensor Polarization in Elastic Electron-Deuteron Scattering at Large Momentum Transfer
    (American Physical Society, 2000-05-29) Abbott, D.; Ahmidouch, A.; Anklin, H.; Arvieux, J.; Ball, J.; Beedoe, S.; Beise, E.J.; Bimbot, L.; Boeglin, W.; Breuer, H.; Brindza, P.; Carlini, R.; Chant, N.S.; Danagoulian, S.; Dow, K.; Ducret, J.-E.; Dunne, J.; Ewell, L.; Eyraud, L.; Furget, C.; Garcon, M.; Gilman, R.; Glashausser, C.; Gueye, P.; Gustafsson, K.; Hafidi, K.; Honegger, A.; Jourdan, J.; Kox, S.; Kumbartzki, G.; Lu, L.; Mack, D.; Markowitz, P.; McIntyre, J.; Meekins, D.; Merchez, F.; Mitchell, J.; Mohring, R.; Mtingwa, S.; Mrktchyan, H.; Pitz, D.; Qin, L.; Ransome, R.D.; Real, J.-S.; Roos, P.G.; Rutt, P.; Sawafta, R.; Stepanyan, S.; Tieulent, R.; Tomasi-Gustafsson, E.; Turchinetz, W.; Vansyoc, K.; Volmer, J.; Voutier, E.; Vulcan, W.; Williamson, C.; Wood, S.A.; Yan, C.; Zhao, J.; Zhao, W.; Lung, A.; Jefferson Lab t20 Collaboration
    Tensor polarization observables ( t20, t21, and t22) have been measured in elastic electron-deuteron scattering for six values of momentum transfer between 0.66 and 1.7(GeV/c)2. The experiment was performed at the Jefferson Laboratory in Hall C using the electron High Momentum Spectrometer, a specially designed deuteron magnetic channel and the recoil deuteron polarimeter POLDER. The new data determine to much larger Q2 the deuteron charge form factors GC and GQ. They are in good agreement with relativistic calculations and disagree with perturbative QCD predictions.

    Precise Measurement of the Deuteron Elastic Structure Function A(Q2)
    (American Physical Society, 1999-02-15) Abbott, D.; Ahmidouch, A.; Anklin, H.; Arvieux, J.; Ball, J.; Beedoe, S.; Beise, E.J.; Bimbot, L.; Boeglin, W.; Breuer, H.; Carlini, R.; Chant, N.S.; Danagoulian, S.; Dow, K.; Ducret, J.-E.; Dunne, J.; Ent, R.; Ewell, L.; Eyraud, L.; Furget, C.; Garcon, M.; Gilman, R.; Glashausser, C.; Gueye, P.; Gustafsson, K.; Hafidi, K.; Honegger, A.; Jourdan, J.; Kox, S.; Kumbartzki, G.; Lu, L.; Lung, A.; Mack, D.; Markowitz, P.; McIntyre, J.; Meekins, D.; Merchez, F.; Mitchell, J.; Mohring, R.; Mtingwa, S.; Mrktchyan, H.; Pitz, D.; Qin, L.; Ransome, R.; Real, J.-S.; Roos, P.G.; Rutt, P.; Sawafta, R.; Stepanyan, S.; Tieulent, R.; Tomasi-Gustafsson, E.; Turchinetz, W.; Vansyoc, K.; Volmer, J.; Voutier, E.; Vulcan, W.; Williamson, C.; Wood, S.A.; Yan, C.; Zhao, J.; Zhao, W.; The Jefferson Lab t20 Collaboration
    The A(Q2) structure function in elastic electron-deuteron scattering was measured at six momentum transfers Q2 between 0.66 and 1.80(GeV/c)2 in Hall C at Jefferson Laboratory. The scattered electrons and recoil deuterons were detected in coincidence, at a fixed deuteron angle of 60.5°. These new precise measurements resolve discrepancies between older sets of data. They put significant constraints on existing models of the deuteron electromagnetic structure, and on the strength of isoscalar meson exchange currents.
