[en] Separated longitudinal and transverse structure functions for the reaction 1H(e,eprime pi+)n were measured in the momentum transfer region Q2=0.6-1.6 (GeV/c)**2 at a value of the invariant mass W=1.95 GeV. New values for the pion charge form factor were extracted from the longitudinal cross section by using a recently developed Regge model. The results indicate that the pion form factor in this region is larger than previously assumed and is consistent with a monopole parameterization fitted to very low Q2 elastic data

[en] The ratio of the proton's elastic electromagnetic form factors, G_Ep/G_Mp, was obtained by measuring P_t and P_ell, the transverse and longitudinal recoil proton polarization components, respectively, for the elastic (rvec e)p → e(rvec p) reaction in the four-momentum transfer squared range of 0.5 to 3.5 GeV². In the single photon exchange approximation, the ratio G_Ep/G_Mp is directly proportional to the ratio P_t/P_ell. The simultaneous measurement of P_t and P_#ell# in a polarimeter reduces systematic uncertainties. The results for the ratio G_Ep/G_Mp show a systematic decrease with increasing Q², indicating for the first time a definite difference in the distribution of charge and magnetization in the proton. The data have been reanalyzed and systematic uncertainties have become significantly smaller than previously published results
