Discovery of High-momentum Nucleon Correlations in Nuclei -- an Early History

arXiv:2504.09337

Abstract

We summarize the reasons for using the light-cone mechanics of nuclei for description of high-energy nuclear processes and describe the steps, which have led to the discovery of high-momentum correlations in nuclei.
