A separation of the longitudinal and transverse {sup 12}C(e,e{sup '}p) cross sections in the quasifree region has been performed in parallel kinematics at Q{sup 2} of 0.64 and 1.8 GeV{sup 2} for initial proton momentum <80 MeV. The separated transverse and longitudinal spectral functions at Q{sup 2}=0.64 GeV{sup 2} show significant differences for missing energy between 25 and 60 MeV indicating a breakdown in the single nucleon knockout picture. The transverse spectral functions exhibit definite momentum transfer dependence. (c) 2000 The American Physical Society.
