Abstract

Nucleon polarization in exclusive electrodisintegration of the deuteron using a polarized beam and an oriented target is systematically investigated in a nonrelativistic framework but with lowest order relativistic contributions to the one-body current including the kinematic part of the wave function boost. The structure functions and the asymmetries corresponding to the various nucleon polarization components are studied with respect to their sensitivity to the potential model, to subnuclear degrees of freedom, and to relativistic effects in different kinematical regions. Furthermore, a few new observables are found which are very sensitive to the neutron electric form factor GEn in the quasifree region.
