in the Born approximation. Here i and f represent the incoming and outgoing neutron and q = k k with k and k the momenta of the incoming and outgoing neutron. Consider the long wavelength limit q2 0 in each of the two terms in (c) and average over q. (d) Show that the rst term averages to 8 B L 3 with L the angular momentum of the electron. (e) Show that the second term averages to 8 B 3 (2.115) (2.114)

(f) Comment on the results. (3) Form Factor. Consider the spherically symmetric charge density (r) = A exp(r). (a) Find the value of A that normalizes the charge density. (b) Calculate the Form Factor that corresponds to this charge density.
