Superscaling in inclusive electron-nucleus scattering

Abstract

We investigate the degree to which the scaling functions $F(\psi')$ derived from cross sections for inclusive electron-nucleus quasi-elastic scattering define the same function for different nuclei. In the region where the scaling variable $\psi'< 0$, we find that this superscaling is experimentally realized to a high degree.Comment: Corrected previously mislabeled figures and cross references; 9 pages, 4 color figures, using BoxedEPS and REVTeX; email correspondence to [email protected]
