Abstract Form factors for elastic electron scattering parametrise the collective response of a struck object and provide information vital for the understanding of its ground state. The quality of existing data for the neutron is much behind that for the proton; it will now benefit from coincidence experiments at modern cw accelerators. For the electric form factor the scattering of high energy polarised electrons from polarised targets or the spin transfer to the recoiling neutron from unpolarised targets now exhibits its full potential in running experiments and delivers first results.
