Title: Ratios of 15N/12C and 4He/12C inclusive electroproduction cross sections in the nucleon resonance region

Journal Article · · Physical Review C
OSTI ID:920984

The ratio of inclusive electron scattering cross sections for 15N/12C was determined in the kinematic range 0.8<2 GeV and 0.2<1 GeV2 using 2.285 GeV electrons and the CLAS detector at Jefferson Lab. The ratio exhibits only slight resonance structure, as predicted by a phenomenological model, and also by quark-hadron duality. Within the super-scaling quasi-elastic model, slight evidence is found for a 1 MeV lower effective nucleon binding energy in 15N than in 12C. Ratios of 4He/12C using 1.6 to 2.5 GeV electrons are in good agreement with the phenomenological model.
