The reaction e + p → e ′+ N ∗ was studied for four momentum transfers up to 2.34 (GeV/ c ) 2 in the region of the 1236 MeV isobar. An analysis of the data in terms of the cross sections σ T and σ L for the absorption of transverse and longitudinal photons is given for invariant masses of the final pion nucleon system W =1.220 GeV and W =1.350 GeV.

We have measured inelastic electron-deuteron, electron-proton, and electron-aluminum cross sections at 10° in the kinematic region between elastic deuteron scattering and the second resonance region at six beam energies between 9.8 and 21 GeV. The elastic electron-neutron cross section was extracted from the quasielastic data at Q2=2.5,4.0,6.0,8.0, and 10.0 (GeV/c)2. The ratio of elastic cross sections σnσp falls with increasing Q2 above 6 (GeV/c)2. The inelastic data are compatible either with y scaling (scattering from a single nucleon) or with ξ scaling (scattering from quarks).
