Recoil tritons were detected from the elastic electron scattering reaction ${}_{}{}^3{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{H}$$\mathrm{}(e,t)\mathrm{}{e}^{\prime }$. From these data charge form factors were determined in the range $0.29\le {q_{\mu }}^2\le 1.0$ ${\mathrm{fm}}^{-2\mathrm{}}$. No significant change in the previously reported charge radius for ${}_{}{}^3{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{H}$ was found.

NUCLEAR REACTIONS ${}_{}{}^3{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{H}$($e$,$t$), $E=77-147\mathrm{}$ MeV, measured $\sigma (E,E_r,{\theta }_r)$ deduced charge form factor, rms charge radius.
