Abstract

The elastic and inelastic cross sections of deuterium for 56.4 MeV electrons scattered at 180\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}, have been measured up to an excitation energy of 19 MeV. The experimental cross sections are compared with those calculated by Miller, by Durand, and by Arenh\"ovel and Fabian, and also with the sum rules of O'Connell. The results indicate that the contribution of meson exchange currents at this low-momentum transfer is significant.NUCLEAR REACTIONS $^{2}\mathrm{H}$($e$,${e}^{\ensuremath{'}}$); $\ensuremath{\theta}=180\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}$, $E=56.4$ MeV; measured $\ensuremath{\sigma}$ for ${E}_{x}=0 \mathrm{to} 19$ MeV. Deduced elastic magnetic form factor.
