Slow proton production in semi-inclusive DIS off nuclei: the role of final state interaction
The effects of the final state interaction on the production of slow protons
in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic lepton scattering off nuclei is considered
within the spectator mechanism and a realistic approach in which the
rescattering in the medium of both the recoiling proton and the hadronizing
nucleon debris are taken into account.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, to appear in the Proceedings of the "Fifth

Investigation of the Neutron Form Factors by Inclusive Quasi-Elastic Scattering of Polarized Electrons off Polarized He: A Theoretical Overview
The theory of quasi-elastic inclusive scattering of polarized leptons off
polarized He is critically reviewed and the origin of different expressions
for the polarized nuclear response function appearing in the literature is
explained. The sensitivity of the longitudinal asymmetry upon the neutron form
factors is thoroughly investigated and the role played by the polarization
angle for minimizing the proton contribution is illustrated.Comment: Phys. Rev C in press; 9 figs. (available upon request
Realistic calculations of correlations and final state interaction effects in the A(e,e'p)X process off complex nuclei
A linked cluster expansion for the calculation of ground state observables of
complex nuclei with realistic interactions has been used to calculate the
ground state energy, density and momentum distribution of 16O and 40Ca. Using
the same cluster expansion and the wave function and correlation parameters
obtained from the energy calculation, we have evaluated the semi inclusive
reaction A(e,e'p)X taking final state interaction (FSI) into account by a
Glauber type approach; the comparison between the distorted and undistorted
momentum distributions provides an estimate of the transparency of the nuclear
medium to the propagation of the hit proton. The effect of color transparency
is also included by considering the Finite Formation Time (FFT) that the hit
hadron needs to reach its asymptotic physical state.Comment: 8 pages, Latex, 8 figures, presented at the "2nd International

A new realistic many-body approach for the description of high-energy scattering processes off complex nuclei
A linked cluster expansion for the calculation of ground state observables of
nuclei with realistic interactions has been developed. Using the V8' potential
the ground state energy, density and momentum distribution of complex nuclei
have been calculated and found to be in good agreement with the results
obtained within the Fermi Hyper Netted Chain, and Variational Monte Carlo
approaches. Using the same cluster expansion, with wave function and
correlations parameters fixed from the calculation of the ground-state
observables, various high energy scattering processes off complex nuclei have
been calculated taking final state interaction effects into account by means of
the Glauber multiple scattering series.Comment: 7 pages, 4 figures, presented by M. Alvioli at the "13th

Rescattering and finite formation time effects in electro-disintegration of the deuteron in the cumulative region
The role of rescattering due to the final state interaction (FSI) and the
influence of the finite formation time (FFT) on the inclusive and
exclusive electro-disintegration of the deuteron are studied in the
cumulative kinematical region and moderate values of the 4-momentum
transfer (GeV/c). The spins are averaged out. It is found
that in the inclusive process the relative magnitude of rescattering steadily
grows with and that at it has the same order as the plane wave
impulse approximation (PWIA) contribution, with the finite formation time
effects decreasing the rescattering contribution by %. In the
exclusive process, with increasing momentum transfer, FFT substantially reduces
the effects from FSI, although the latter are still appreciable in the region
of momentum transfer investigated.Comment: 5 pages, 5 EPS figures. Presented by M. A. Braun at the Fourth

Finite formation time effects in inclusive and semi-inclusive electro-disintegration of few-body nuclei
Finite Formation Time (FFT) effects in the exclusive reaction ^4He(e,e'p)^3H
at high values of Q^2 are introduced and discussed. It is shown that the
minimum in the momentum distributions predicted by the Plane Wave Impulse
Approximation (PWIA), which is filled by the Glauber-type Final State
Interaction (FSI), is completely recovered when FFT effects are taken into
account. The semi-inclusive process ^4 He(e,e'p)X is also investigated.Comment: 4 pages, 2 eps figure
Transport Theoretical Approach to the Nucleon Spectral Function in Nuclear Matter
The nucleon spectral function in infinite nuclear matter is calculated in a
quantum transport theoretical approach. Exploiting the known relation between
collision rates and correlation functions the spectral function is derived
self-consistently. By re-inserting the spectral functions into the collision
integrals the description of hard processes from the high-momentum components
of wave functions and interactions is improved iteratively until convergence is
achieved. The momentum and energy distributions and the nuclear matter
occupation probabilities are in very good agreement with the results obtained
from many-body theory.Comment: minor changes in the text, additional curves in fig.
