Exclusive deuteron electro-disintegration with a polarized target

ORAL

Abstract

The tensor polarized target at Jefferson Lab can be used to measure the spin structure of the deuteron in a kinematic regime where the D-state starts to dominate the ground state. This talk presents a set of kinematics to measure the D(e, e'p)n tensor asymmetry for missing momenta up to 450 MeV/c and momentum transfer larger than 2 GeV2, suitable to perform an experiment at Jefferson Lab. The measurements could help in the understanding of the deuteron structure of nucleons with high missing momenta.
