The magnetic form factors for the 3He and 3H nuclei have been calculated for different values of momentum transfer. The three-nucleon ground-state wave function is expressed in momentum space and is obtained from the solution of the Faddeev equations with realistic two-body potentials. The potential used is taken from the meson theory to include different meson-exchange contributions satisfying the requirements of current conservation. The different meson-exchange currents and their contributions to the trinucleon magnetic form factors are calculated. The virtual Δ-excitation and the meson–nucleon vertices form factors are included in the 3He and 3H magnetic-form-factors calculations. The present results show the importance of the higher momentum transfer region as being a good source of information to the short-range processes in the nuclear medium. Our results for the 3He and 3H magnetic form factors are in good agreements with the experimental data. The inclusion of the ρ and ω meson exchanges improves the agreement between positions of the minima of the magnetic form factors predicted and the experimental data.

The radiative capture process np→dγ is considered within the framework of a recently developed six-quark dressed-bag model for the nucleon-nucleon interaction. The calculations presented here include both the nucleon current and the meson-exchange current contributions. The latter uses short-range hadronic form factors for the pion exchange currents consistent with the soft cut-off parameter ΛπNN from the NN-potential. Contributions of the pion exchange current and Δ-isobar current to the total cross-section still cannot explain the discrepancy between the theoretical and experimental cross-sections. Possibilities for new types of meson exchange currents associated with chiral fields inside multi-quark dressed-bag states in nuclei are discussed.

It is well known that the strength for excitations of [Formula: see text] high spin, stretched states observed via inelastic scattering, is generally much smaller than that predicted by spherical shell-model calculations. In addition, results obtained from electromagnetic and hadronic studies have discrepancies at the 20% level. For us to gain a better understanding of reduced magnetic strength in electron scattering and hopefully close the gap between experiment and theory, calculations of the electron-scattering form factors have been performed including the effects due to meson exchange currents in the transition amplitude and the effects due to unbound wave functions for the valence nucleon. The effect of the meson exchange-current contributions is to uniformly enhance the form factors near the first maximum, resulting in a 16 to 20% further reduction of the stretched particle–hole strength. The effect due to the radial wave functions deduced from Woods–Saxon potentials in which the nucleon is not bound is to reduce the form factors, thereby resulting in an increase in the spectroscopic strength. As regards the comparison of results obtained with electromagnetic and hadronic probes, the implied sensitivity to higher order current and spin–current transition densities associated with the nonlocality due to the tensor knockout exchange amplitudes in nucleon–nucleus scattering is considered explicitly. It is found that the simplest correspondence between electron and nucleon–nucleus scattering is preserved for isovector excitations but not for isoscalar excitations under the usual assumptions for the tensor interaction. It is clear that precise comparisons between experiment and theory (or between probes) cannot be made unless these and related effects are consistently included.
