Abstract
The correlation between the deuteron quadrupole moment Q, the deuteron asymptotic D/S ratio η, and the deuteron asymptotic normalization constant AS is studied. For local nucleon-nucleon potentials, it was found that the quantities Q/η and AS2 are related by a linear equation. Owing to this, the deuteron quadrupole moment Q can be determined from known values of AS and η with an absolute precision of about 0.0003 fm2. The inclusion of the correction for meson-exchange currents and the use of the experimental neutron-proton phase shifts from the GWU partial-wave analysis made it possible to estimate the deuteron quadrupole moment at Q = 0.2852 fm2, which is in good agreement with experimental data.
