摘要:We develop a methodology that enables us to extract accurately the electromagnetic D form factors
and their momentum dependence. We test our approach in the quenched approximation as a
preparation for a study using dynamical fermions. Our calculation of the four form factors covers
pion masses between about 410 MeV and 560 MeV on lattices with a size of 2.9 fm and a lattice
spacing 0.09 fm. From the form factors we are able to obtain estimates of the magnetic moment
and the charge radius of the D, which we compare to existing experimental and theoretical results.
Our non-zero result for the electric quadrupole form factor signals a deformation of the D, pointing
to an oblate charge distribution.
