We calculate the change in the form factor for a neutron bound in $^3He$, with respect to the free case, using several versions of the quark meson coupling model. It is found that the form factor may be suppressed by as much as 12% at $Q^2 = 0.5{GeV}^2$ with respect to that of the free neutron.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1998-04-06T09:56:25.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "13.40.Gp" ], "keywords": [ "neutron charge form factor", "neutron bound", "quark meson coupling model", "free case", "free neutron" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 13, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 469011 } } }
