Comment on "Electromagnetic form factors for nucleons in short-range correlations": arXiv:2305.13666

Dmitry N. Kim, Or Hen, Gerald A. Miller +3

The relationship between medium modifications of nuclear quark structure functions and medium modifications of elastic electromagnetic form factors is shown to be model dependent.

Short-range correlations in nuclei

Or Hen, Holly Szumila-Vance, Lawrence Weinstein
