چکیده
This article presents a review of the field of inclusive quasi-elastic electron-nucleus scattering. It discusses the approach used to measure the data and includes a compilation of data available in numerical form. The theoretical approaches used to interpret the data are presented. A number of results obtained from the comparison between experiment and calculation are then reviewed. The analogies and differences to other fields of physics exploiting quasi-elastic scattering from composite systems are pointed out.

A parton picture of inclusive quasi-elastic electron scattering off nuclei
A new approach to scaling in inclusive quasi-elastic electron-nucleus scattering is presented. Inspired by the parton model developed for the deep inelastic scattering off the nucleon, a parton picture of quasi-elastic scattering off nuclei, where individual nucleons are treated as non point-like partons, is elaborated. Thanks to the Operator Product Expansion formalism all the necessary target...

متن کاملSuperscaling in inclusive electron - nucleus scattering
We investigate the degree to which the scaling functions F (ψ ′) derived from cross sections for inclusive electron-nucleus quasi-elastic scattering define the same function for different nuclei. In the region where the scaling variable ψ ′ < 0, we find that this superscaling is experimentally realized to a high degree.
متن کاملNuclear Physics with Electroweak Probes
The last few years activity of the Italian community concerning nuclear physics with electroweak probes is reviewed. Inclusive quasi-elastic electron-scattering, photon end electron induced oneand two-nucleon emission are considered. The scattering of neutrinos off nuclei in the quasi-elastic region is also discussed.
