We have measured the deuteron A ( Q 2 ) structure function in the momentum transfer region between 1 and 18 fm −2 . The accuracy of the data ranges from 2 to 6%. These measurements allow a sensitive test of theoretical predictions. We find that meson-exchange currents and relativistic corrections significantly improve the agreement between experiment and theory. We investigate the sensitivity of A ( Q 2 ) to the nucleon-nucleon interaction and to the neutron electric form factor G E n ( Q 2 ). Our analysis shows that G E n ( Q 2 ) can be extracted from these data with a significantly improved accuracy. The model dependence of this analysis is discussed.

Magnetic Form Factor of the Deuteron

We have measured the deuteron magnetic form factor B(q2) for values of the momentum transfer squared between 7 and 28 fm−2. The data are compared with relativistic and nonrelativistic predictions including meson-exchange-current contributions. Significant disagreement is found for large momentum transfers.
