Spin-orbit final state interaction in the framework of Glauber theory for (e,e{prime}p) reactions

OSTI ID:756000

The authors investigate the reactions D(e,e{prime}p)n and D({rvec e},e{prime}p)n at GeV energies and discuss the opportunities to distinguish between different models for the nuclear ground state by measuring the response functions. In calculating the final-state interaction (FSI) they employ Glauber theory, and they also include relativistic effects in the electromagnetic current. They include not only the central FSI, but also the spin-orbit FSI which is usually neglected in (e,e{prime}p) calculations within the Glauber framework and they show that this contribution plays a crucial role for the fifth response function. All of the methods developed here can be applied to any target nucleus.
