Single pi+ Electroproduction on the Proton in the First and Second Resonance Regions at 0.25GeV^2 < Q^2 < 0.65GeV^2 Using CLAS
The ep -> e'pi^+n reaction was studied in the first and second nucleon
resonance regions in the 0.25 GeV^2 < Q^2 < 0.65 GeV^2 range using the CLAS
detector at Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. For the first time
the absolute cross sections were measured covering nearly the full angular
range in the hadronic center-of-mass frame. The structure functions sigma_TL,
sigma_TT and the linear combination sigma_T+epsilon*sigma_L were extracted by
fitting the phi-dependence of the measured cross sections, and were compared to
the MAID and Sato-Lee models.Comment: Accepted for publication in PR
Measurement of two- and three-nucleon short-range correlation probabilities in nuclei
The ratios of inclusive electron scattering cross sections of 4He, 12C, and 56Fe to 3He have been measured at 1 \u3c xB \u3c. At Q2 \u3e 1.4 GeV2, the ratios exhibit two separate plateaus, at 1.5 \u3c xB \u3c 2 and at xB \u3e 2.25. This pattern is predicted by models that include 2- and 3-nucleon short-range correlations (SRC). Relative to A = 3, the per-nucleon probabilities of 3-nucleon SRC are 2.3, 3.1, and 4.4 times larger for A = 4, 12, and 56. This is the first measurement of 3-nucleon SRC probabilities in nuclei
