Abstract
A comprehensive theoretical and experimental investigation of electron scattering on /sup 19/F is presented. Theoretical procedures for calculating the various components of electron scattering form factors from multiparticle shell-model wave functions are summarized. These procedures are used to compare shell-model predictions with data from electron scattering on /sup 19/F. For the positive-parity states of /sup 19/F we use 1s0d shell-model wave functions obtained with a new ''universal'' Hamiltonian and for the negative-parity states we use 0p-1s0d shell-model wave functions based on the cross-shell Hamiltonian of Millener and Kurath. The comparisons are made with measured longitudinal and transverse form factors for momentum transfers up to 2.4 fm/sup -1/ which are extracted from experimental data obtained with electron energies from 78 to 340 MeV, and angles of 45/sup 0/, 90/sup 0/, and 160/sup 0/. The energy resolution was 25--50 keV and most of the known levels below 8 MeV in excitation were resolved and compared with theory.
