Longitudinal and Transverse Quasi-Elastic Response Functions of Light Nuclei
نویسنده
چکیده
The He and He longitudinal and transverse response functions are determined from an analysis of the world data on quasi-elastic inclusive electron scattering. The corresponding Euclidean response functions are derived and compared to those calculated with Green’s function Monte Carlo methods, using realistic interactions and currents. Large contributions associated with two-body currents are found, particularly in the He transverse response, in agreement with data. The contributions of two-body charge and current operators in the He, He, and Li response functions are also studied via sum-rule techniques. A semi-quantitative explanation for the observed systematics in the excess of transverse quasi-elastic strength, as function of mass number and momentum transfer, is provided. Finally, a number of model studies with simplified interactions, currents, and wave functions is carried out to elucidate the role played, in the full calculation, by tensor interactions and correlations.

Precision Measurement of Longitudinal and Transverse Response Functions of Quasi-Elastic Electron Scattering in the Momentum Transfer
We propose to make a precision measurement of inclusive electron scattering cross sections in the quasi-elastic region for a wide range of momentum transfers for He, C, Fe and Pb. We will extract the longitudinal and transverse response functions in the momentum transfer range 0.55 GeV/c ≤ |q| ≤ 0.9 GeV/c with a precision of a few percent improving significantly on the precision of previous mea...
متن کاملElectrodisintegration of Few Body Systems at Slac and the Y Scaling Approach
It is proposed that extraction of the scaling function F(y) from the transverse and longitudinal response functions in inclusive quasi-elastic electron scattering from 3He and 4He is a powerful method to either study the validity regime of the impulse approximation by allowing the access to the high nucleon momentum components in these nuclei, or the electromagnetic properties of bound nucleons.
متن کاملElastic Wave Propagation at Imperfect Boundary of Micropolar Elastic Solid and Fluid Saturated Porous Solid Half-Space
This paper deals with the reflection and transmission of elastic waves from imperfect interface separating a micropolar elastic solid half-space and a fluid saturated porous solid half-space. Longitudinal and transverse waves impinge obliquely at the interface. Amplitude ratios of various reflected and transmitted waves are obtained and computed numerically for a specific model and results obta...
متن کاملThe quasi - elastic nuclear response
We explore the nuclear responses at intermediate energies, particularly in the spin longitudinal σ · q and spin transverse σ × q isovector channels, within the continuum random phase approximation framework. We also employ an extension of the standard random phase approximation to account for the spreading width of the single particle states through the inclusion of a complex and energy-depende...
متن کاملDegenerate weakly nonlinear elastic plane waves
Weakly nonlinear plane waves are considered in hyperelastic crystals. Evolution equations are derived at a quadratically nonlinear level for the amplitudes of quasi-longitudinal and quasi-transverse waves propagating in arbitrary anisotropic media. The form of the equations obtained depends upon the direction of propagation relative to the crystal axes. A single equation is found for all propag...
