Comment on the Deuteron Structure FunctionA(q2)at High Momentum Transfers

Abstract

Calculations of $A\left(q^2\right)$ were performed for various $\mathrm{NN}$ potentials and electromagnetic nucleon form factors at $q^2=0-160\mathrm{}$ ${\mathrm{fm}}^{-2\mathrm{}}$ with inclusion of isobar configurations and meson exchange currents, indicating that recent elastic electron scattering experiments do not rule out the existence of isobar configurations and meson exchange currents in the deuteron as has been conjectured.
