Effective spectral function for quasielastic scattering on nuclei

Improved effective momentum approximation for quasielastic (e,e’) scattering off highly charged nuclei

We address the problem of including Coulomb distortion effects in inclusive quasielastic (e, e) reactions using an improved version of the effective momentum approximation. Arguments are given that a simple modification of the effective momentum approximation, which is no longer applicable in its original form in the case of highly charged nuclei, leads to very good results. A comparison of the...

Effective interaction in quasielastic electron scattering calculations

The transverse nuclear response for quasifree electron scattering is discussed. The analysis is done by comparing different calculations performed in the random-phase approximation and ring approximation frameworks. The importance of the exchange terms in this energy region is investigated and the changes in the nuclear responses due to the modification of the interaction are evaluated. The cal...

Coulomb Corrections in Quasielastic Scattering off Heavy Nuclei

Quasielastic versus Inelastic and Deep Inelastic Lepton Scattering in Nuclei

We have made a thorough investigation of the nuclear structure function W2A in the region of 0.8 < x < 1.5 and Q2 < 20 GeV2, separating the quasielastic and inelastic plus deep inelastic contributions. The agreement with present experimental data is good giving support to the results for both channels. Predictions are made in yet unexplored regions of x and Q2 to assert the weight of the quasie...

Inclusive quasielastic scattering of polarized electrons from polarized nuclei

The inclusive quasielastic response functions that appear in the scattering of polarized electrons from polarized nuclei are computed and analyzed for several closed-shell-minus-one nuclei with special attention paid to K. Results are presented using two models for the ejected nucleon | when described by a distorted wave in the continuum shell model or by a plane wave in PWIA with onand o -shel...
