ELASTIC MAGNETIC FROM FACTORS FOR 7Li

Abstract

Elastic magnetic electron scattering form factors have been calculated for the ground state Jπ T=3/2-1/2 of 7Li in the framework of the many-particle shell model. The calculations are based on the model space wave functions of Cohen-Kurath interaction. The results are compared with the available experimental data. The data are reasonably explained up to q~3.0fm-1 when the size parameter of the harmonic oscillator potential is reduced from that used to fit the root mean square charge radius.
