Neutron Magnetic Form Factor GnM • Pre-polarization era • GnM world data fromunpolarized experiments • Cross section ratioquasielastic • + CLAS preliminary • Polarization era • GnM world data + 3He + BLAST preliminary PRELIMINARY *Ph.D. work of N. Meitanis (MIT) and B. O’Neill (ASU)

How to reconcile GnM around 1 (GeV/c)2 • IncAs: Simultaneous measurement of inclusive beam-vector asymmetries in quasifree kinematics with 2 target spin orientations relative to momentum transfer • Polarized deuterium target (UVA), qd ~= 45o (left)Pb*Pt = 0.8*0.3 = 0.24, L=1034 / (cm2s) • HMS (right) + Bigcal (left) / use solid angle 6msrsingle-arm (e,e’) left and right at symmetric angle D-Spin: ~45o e’: Bigcal, 25o-60o e-: E=(0.85), 1.2,2.4 GeV e’: HMS, 25o-60o
IncAs: qe vs. Q2 and count rate • Kinematic coverage
IncAs: qe vs. Q2 and count rate • Kinematic coverage • Counts per day at 1034 / (cm2s)and 6 msr solid angle
IncAs: q* vs. Q2 Angle between target spin and momentum transfer qd = 45o qd = 75o

IncAs: A precision GMn measurement 3% statistics: • 6msr – HMS (right) • 60msr – Bigcal (left) • Dilution = 0.25PbPt = 0.8*0.33I = 100 nAL=3.4x1035/(cm2s) • 5 days per point 2.4GeV/25o/5d@3.4e35/(cm2s) 1.2GeV/50o
IncAs: Inclusive Asymmetries • Inclusive asymmetries powerful tool for high precisionmeasurement of GMn • Excellent control of systematic uncertaintiesthrough cancellations (eff., lumin., pol., …) • Super ratio method with enhanced sensitivity to GMn – no precise knowledge of polarization required • For perp/par kinematics, dR/R ~= dGMn/GMn • IncAs = Polarization method beyond He-3 • SANE and g1d to use polarized deuterium in Hall C • Relevance for determining target polarization in g1d from asymmetries • Squeeze it in (?) … or submit Loi/Proposal to PAC34for consideration after 12 GeV upgrade
