3 Hadron Electromagnetic Form factors Characterize the internal structure of a particle ( point-like) FFs are real in space-like region (scattering) and imaginary in time-like region (annihilation). Elastic form factors contain information on the hadron ground state. In a P- and T-invariant theory, the EM structure of a particle of spin S is defined by 2S+1 form factors. Neutron and proton form factors are different. Deuteron: 2 structure functions, but 3 form factors. Playground for theory and experiment.

4 027,9$7,216 In the traditional view, the atom s nucleus appears as a cluster of nucleons - protons and neutrons. A deeper view reveals quarks and gluons inside the nucleons. CEBAF s continuous, energetic beams of probing electrons let physicists examine how the two view fit together. Ultimately, the process of bridging the views will yield a complete understanding of nuclear matter. Istitutional plan (2000)

5 Dipole Approximation G D =1/(1+Q 2 /0.71 GeV 2 ) 2 Classical approach Nucleon FF (in the Breit system) are Fourier transform of the charge or magnetic distribution. The dipole approximation corresponds to an exponential density distribution. 0 exp(-r/r 0 ), r 02 = (0.24 fm) 2, <r 2 > ~(0.81 fm) 2 m 2 D =0.71 GeV2

6 Dipole Approximation and pqcd Dimensional scaling F n (Q 2 )= C n [1/( 1+Q 2 /m n ) n-1 ], m n =nβ 2, <quark momentum squared> n is the number of constituent quarks Setting β 2 =(0.471±.010) GeV ILWWLQJSLRQ GDWD pion: F π (Q 2 )= C π [1/ (1+Q 2 /0.471 GeV 2 ) 1 ], nucleon: F 1 (Q 2 )= C 1 [1/( 1+Q 2 /0.71 GeV 2 ) 2 ], deuteron: F G (Q 2 )= C G [1/( 1+Q 2 /1.41GeV 2 ) 5 ]
