Abstract
We explore the dependence of the magnetic and charge form factors of and on nucleon structure models and interaction models within the traditional framework of nucleons, isobars, and mesons. We utilize wave functions which incorporate the effect of a genuine three-body force, and include contributions to the nuclear current from a variety of mesonic exchange and isobaric processes. The importance of the high momentum transfer region as a source of information on short-range processes in the nuclear medium is reiterated by our results.
