Electromagnetic Structure of the Proton and Neutron

High-energy electron scattering measurements have demonstrated clearly the existence of deviations from point-nucleon scattering laws. The results obtained in the proton and neutron investigations have been interpreted as evidence of the finite sizes of the nucleons. The results already established as well as some of the most recent findings of the electron-scattering method are summarized. A brief account of the significance of the observed deviations from point-nucleon scattering is presented. (W.D.M.)
