    Abstract

    The magnitudes and relative phase of the E2 electron scattering form factors of the 6.32 MeV ((3/2-) state of 15N have been measured at momentum transfers (q) of 0.63 and 1.07fm-1. These two transverse multipole form factors were separated using a combined analysis of single-arm (e, e′) and coincident (e, e′ γ) data. This measurement is the first model independent separation of multipole form factors that contribute to a mixed transition.
