Obtaining information on short-range correlations from inclusive electron scattering
arXiv:0904.0443 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.79.051302
Abstract
In view of recent data from the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (JLab) on inclusive electron scattering off nuclei at high momentum transfer (Q^2 > 1 GeV^2) and their current analysis, it is shown that, if the scaling variable is properly chosen, the analysis in terms of scaling functions can provide useful information on Short Range Correlations (SRC). This is demonstrated by introducing a new relativistic scaling variable that incorporates the momentum dependence of the excitation energy of the (A-1)system, with the resulting scaling function being closely related to the longitudinal momentum distributions.
