Abstract

The tensor polarization t 20 of the recoil deuteron in elastic e-d scattering has been measured for three values of four-momentum transfer, q = 3.78, 4.22, and 4.62 fm-1. The results have been used to separate the charge monopole and charge quadrupole form factors of the deuteron and to locate the first node in the charge monopole form factor at q = 4.39 ± 0.16 fm-1. The extracted t 20 values are compared with several theoretical predictions.
