Abstract

Distorted momentum distributions in the 12C(e, e'p) reaction are calculated using the Elton-Swift wave functions for the bound-state protons. Final-state interactions between the ejected proton and residual nucleus are taken into account by means of the WKB approximation using the complex optical potential. It is shown that the factors governing qualitative features of the distorted momentum distributions are the angle ω between the recoil momentum vector and the vector kp and the quantity (Ep/kp)ReV¯, where (Ep, kp) is the four-momentum of the ejected proton and ReV¯ is some average value of the real part of the optical potential. Measurement of the distorted momentum distributions over a wide range of the angle ω is proposed.
