Abstract

Recent pion electro-production experiments of the A1 Collaboration at MAMI are presented. The threshold data in the p(e,e′p)π 0 and d(e,e′d)π 0 channels reveal the chiral dynamics of the pion-nucleon system at low energies. Measurements of the neutral channel in the ∆ region address the issue of the pion cloud, while the p(e,e′π +)n channel gives access to the axial structure of the nucleon.

Keywords
