0 n - p Short - Range Correlations from ( p , 2 p + n ) Measurements

Recently, a new technique for measuring short-range NN correlations in nuclei (NN SRCs) was reported by the E850 collaboration, using data from the EVA spectrometer at the AGS at Brookhaven Nat. Lab. In this talk, we will report on a larger set of data from new measurement by the collaboration, utilizing the same technique. This technique is based on a very simple kinematic approach. For quasielastic knockout of protons from a nucleus (C(p,2p) was used for the current work), we can reconstruct the momentum pf of the struck proton in the nucleus before the reaction, from the three momenta of the two detected protons, p1 and p2 and the three momentum of the incident proton, p0 :
