Abstract

High-energy collisions of hadrons on nuclei are studied by means of Glauber multiple scattering theory, using Jastrow correlated wave functions. To this end a cluster expansion is derived, and its convergence properties are studied. Calculations have been carried out for ⁴He and ¹⁶O nuclei, and they are compared with experimental data.

Electron scattering by nuclei
1980, Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics
The theory of electron-nucleus interaction is reviewed and applied to the derivation of the cross-sections for elastic and quasi-electric scattering. A detailed survey of the available experimental data concerning the above processes is presented. The theoretical interpretation of the experimental data in terms of microscopic wave functions is thoroughly discussed and the effects of meson exchange currents are also considered. Finally, a discussion is presented on the problem of the effects of the so-called short-range correlations in electron scattering and the question as to whether a unified analysis of electron, photon and proton scattering from light nuclei at intermediate energies is at present possible is also discussed. Unlike previous reviews on electron scattering, in this article the attention is mainly focussed on the theoretical interpretation of the experimental data pertaining to the few-body systems, in terms of accurate solutions of the non-relativistic Schroedinger equation, and those pertaining to light nuclei in terms of approximate wave functions resulting from various types of linked cluster expansions based on the G matrix.
Scattering of 1 GeV protons on nuclei
1978, Physics Reports
The 1 GeV high resolution proton nucleus scattering is reviewed. The effects from nuclear correlations are considered in detail. The sensitivity of differential cross sections to the one particle density and NN amplitude parameters are demonstrated. An analysis of the elastic proton scattering from the zero-spin nuclei and the obtained information on the neutron and matter distributions are presented. The scattering from a few nonspherical light nuclei is analysed. The first results on proton-nucleus polarization are discussed.
Short-range correlations in nuclei and their investigation with the reaction (e, e'd)
1978, Nuclear Physics, Section A
A model-independent definition of short-range correlations is given in terms of the two-body density. It is contrasted to other concepts of the short-range correlations, particularly to deviations from a Slater determinant one-body density. It is shown how a two-nucleon knock-out reaction like (e, e'd) may give information about short-range correlations if its cross section is formulated in terms of a two-hole spectral function. This cross section is calculated in a simple model to demonstrate the possibility of extracting detailed information about two-body quantities from a complicated expression for the cross section. The results show that the distortion of the outgoing deuteron does not obscure the dependence on the relative motion of the two nucleons before the reaction.
