Abstract

The transverse electromagnetic form factors squared of the C12 2+ levels at 4.439 MeV (T=0) and at 16.107 MeV (T=1) have been measured by means of 180° electron scattering over a momentum-transfer range from q=0.51 to 2.05 fm1. Evidence is presented for appreciable contributions of nuclear convection currents to the transverse 4.439-MeV form factor at low q, and spin magnetization contributions to the transverse 16.107-MeV form factor at higher q.
