Abstract

The contribution of some meson exchange currents to the magnetic form factor of 49Ti, 51V, 87Sr and 93Nb has been claimed to be important. We have reexamined those claims and conclude that previous models would not explain the experimentally large form factors near q = 3.0 fm −1. Inclusion of short range NN correlations enhances these meson exchange current contribution by factors of 2.5 to 4.0, but further inclusion of meson nucleon vertex form factors goes in the wrong direction.
