  The neutron spin-orbit density contributes to the nuclear charge density as a
relativistic effect. The contribution is enhanced by the effective mass
stemming from the Lorentz-scalar potential in relativistic models. This
enhancement explains well the difference between the cross sections of elastic
electron scattering off $^{40}$Ca and $^{48}$Ca which was not reproduced in
non-relativistic models. The spin-orbit density will be examined in more detail
in electron scattering off unstable nuclei which would be available in the
future.
