We investigate polarized deuteron structure functions at small values of the Bjorken variable, x < 0.1. In this region contributions from the coherent interaction of diffractively excited hadronic states with both nucleons become important. A proper treatment of this process requires an extension of the Glauber-Gribov multiple scattering theory to include spin degrees of freedom. In the kinemat...

Multiple scattering theory based on a cluster model is used to simulate full-hemispherical X-ray photoelectron diffraction measure ments in order to verify how state of the art multiple scattering simulations are able to reproduce the experiment. This approach applied to the Cu(111) surface for two different photoelectron kinetic energies. Differences and similarities between single and multip ...

The first order polarization dependent electron multiple scattering theory of Toptygin has been evaluated for realistic experimental conditions. The result is a prediction of essentially no beam depolarization. Recent experiments are discussed, and calculations are made to illustrate the influence of multiple scattering on Mott double scattering asymmetries. (Submitted to Phys. Rev.) * Supporte...

Glauber theory for nucleus-nucleus scattering at high incident energies is reformulated so as to become applicable also for the scattering at intermediate energies. We test validity of the eikonal and adiabatic approximations used in the formulation, and discuss the relation between the present theory and the conventional Glauber calculations with either the empirical nucleon-nucleon profile fu...

We use multiple scattering theory to evaluate the Q 2 dependence of the forward-backward asymmetry, A z , of the missing momentum distribution in quasielstic A(e, e ′ p) scattering, which is expected to be affected by color transparency. The novel features of our analysis are a consistent treatment of the structure of the ejectile state formed after absorption of the virtual photon by the struc...
