Abstract

We have measured the ratio,

\frac{Y^{+}}{Y^{-}}

, of positron to electron inelastic scattering yields from hydrogen and deuterium at

Q^{2}

the square of the four-momentum transfer, between 2.4 and 14.9

{(G e V / c)}^{2}

. The ratios are consistent with

\frac{Y^{+}}{Y^{-}} = 1

to within errors of a few percent.
