A-dependence of nuclear transparency in quasielastic A(e,e'p) at high Q^2
The A-dependence of the quasielastic A(e,e'p) reaction has been studied at
SLAC with H-2, C, Fe, and Au nuclei at momentum transfers Q^2 = 1, 3, 5, and
6.8 (GeV/c)^2. We extract the nuclear transparency T(A,Q^2), a measure of the
average probability that the struck proton escapes from the nucleus A without
interaction. Several calculations predict a significant increase in T with
momentum transfer, a phenomenon known as Color Transparency. No significant
rise within errors is seen for any of the nuclei studied.Comment: 5 pages incl. 2 figures, Caltech preprint OAP-73
Inclusive Electron Scattering from Nuclei at
The inclusive A(e,e') cross section for was measured on H,
C, Fe, and Au for momentum transfers from 1-7 (GeV/c). The scaling
behavior of the data was examined in the region of transition from y-scaling to
x-scaling. Throughout this transitional region, the data exhibit -scaling,
reminiscent of the Bloom-Gilman duality seen in free nucleon scattering.Comment: 4 pages, RevTeX; 4 figures (postscript in .tar.Z file
Inclusive electron scattering from nuclei at x≃1
The inclusive A(e,e′) cross section for x≃1 was measured on 2H, C, Fe, and Au for momentum transfers Q2 from 1 to 6.8 (GeV/c)2. The scaling behavior of the data was examined in the region of transition from y scaling to x scaling. Throughout this transitional region, the data exhibit ξ scaling, reminiscent of the Bloom-Gilman duality seen in free nucleon scattering
Two-Body Photodisintegration of the Deuteron up to 2.8 GeV
Measurements were performed for the photodisintegration cross section of the deuteron for photon energies from 1.6 to 2.8 GeV and center-of-mass angles from 37° to 90°. The measured energy dependence of the cross section at θc.m.=90° is in agreement with the constituent counting rules
Evidence for virtual Compton scattering from the proton
In virtual Compton scattering an electron is scattered off a nucleon such that the nucleon emits a photon. We show that these events can be selected experimentally, and present the first evidence for virtual Compton scattering from the proton in data obtained at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. The angular and energy dependence of the data is well described by a calculation that includes the coherent sum of electron and proton radiation
A-Dependence of Nuclear Transparency in Quasielastic A (e, e\u27p) at high Q²
The A-dependence of the quasielastic A(e, ef\u27p) reaction has been studied at SLAC with 2H, C, Fe, and Au nuclei at momentum transfers Q2 = 1, 3, 5, and 6.8 (GeV/c)2. We extract the nuclear transparency T(A, Q2), a measure of the average probability that the struck proton escapes from the nucleus A without interaction. Several calculations predict a significant increase in T with momentum transfer, a phenomenon known as Color Transparency. Within the measurement uncertainty, no increase is seen for any of the nuclei studied
Deep Inelastic Scattering of Polarized Electrons by Polarized He and the Study of the Neutron Spin Structure
The neutron longitudinal and transverse asymmetries and have been extracted from deep inelastic scattering of polarized electrons by a polarized He target at incident energies of 19.42, 22.66 and 25.51 GeV. The measurement allows for the determination of the neutron spin structure functions and over the range at an average of 2 (GeV. The data are used for the evaluation of the Ellis-Jaffe and Bjorken sum rules. The neutron spin structure function is small and negative within the range of our measurement, yielding an integral . Assuming Regge behavior at low , we extract . Combined with previous proton integral results from SLAC experiment E143, we find \alpha_s = 0.32\pm 0.05$
