Title: Novel observation of isospin structure of short-range correlations in calcium isotopes

Abstract

Short Range Correlations (SRCs) have been identiffed as being responsible for the high momentum tail of the nucleon momentum distribution, n(k). Hard, short-range interactions of nucleon pairs generate the high momentum tail and imprint a universal character on n(k) for all nuclei at large momentum. Triple coincidence experiments have shown a strong dominance of np pairs, but these measurements involve large final state interactions. This paper presents the results from Jefferson Lab experiment E08014 which measured inclusive electron scattering cross-section from Ca isotopes. Here, by comparing the inclusive cross section from ⁴⁸Ca to ⁴⁰Ca in a kinematic region dominated by SRCs we provide a new way to study the isospin structure of SRCs.

The Isospin Dependence of Short Range Correlations through Inclusive Electron Scattering from 40Ca and 48Ca

Thesis/Dissertation Nguyen, Dien

Short Range Correlations (SRCs) have been recognized as responsible for the high momentum tail of the nucleon momentum distribution in nuclei and are necessary to explain the missing nuclear strength in the mean field theory. One of the important questions about SRCs is their iso-spin dependence, yet unseen in inclusive scattering. An experiment (E08014) took place in Hall A at Jefferson Lab in Spring 2011 aimed to study SRCs. The inclusive electron scattering cross-sections from different nuclei including 2D, 3He, 4He, 12C, 40Ca and 48Ca were measured in kinematic region of (0.8 < Q2 < 2.8 GeV2) and (1 <more »« less

Isospin dependence of Nucleon-Nucleon Short-range Correlations in Inclusive Scattering with Tritium and Helium-3

Thesis/Dissertation Li, Shujie

The nucleon-nucleon (NN) potential has a strong repulsive core. When a two-nucleon (sub)system falls into this range, they will interact strongly at short distance, and move away from each other with momenta above the Fermi level. This is called the NN Short range Correlations (SRCs). Previous experiments reported a neutron-proton pair (isos inglet) dominance in high-momentum nucleons. In inclusive electron scattering, this np dominance will cause a scaling behavior of cross sections at 1.4 < xbj = Q2/2m? < 2 where the high-momentum nucleons dominate. At Je?erson Lab Hall A we checked this hypothesis with electron Quasi-elastic (QE) scattering onmore »« less

Revealing the short-range structure of the mirror nuclei ³H and ³He

Journal Article Li, S. ; Cruz-Torres, R. ; Santiesteban, N. ; ... - Nature (London)

When protons and neutrons (nucleons) are bound into atomic nuclei, they are close enough to feel significant attraction, or repulsion, from the strong, short-distance part of the nucleon-nucleon interaction. These strong interactions lead to hard collisions between nucleons, generating pairs of highly energetic nucleons referred to as short-range correlations (SRCs). SRCs are an important but relatively poorly understood part of nuclear structure, and mapping out the strength and the isospin structure (neutron-proton (np) versus proton-proton (pp) pairs) of these virtual excitations is thus critical input for modelling a range of nuclear, particle and astrophysics measurements.

Study of Three-Nucleon Short Range Correlations in x>2 regime

Conference Ye, Zhihong ; Arrington, John ; Day, Donal ; ...

Inclusive electron scattering is a powerful tool to study nuclear short range correlations (SRCs). Recent experiments in Jefferson Lab have established their presence of substantial 2N correlations by taking the ratio of the cross sections of heavy to light nuclei in the region of $1 < x < 2$. However the experimental situation is much more uncertain with regard to three nucleon SRCs (3N-SRCs) which may dominate for $x > 2$. Jefferson Lab experiment E08014 experiment ran in April and May of 2011 in Hall-A and was designed to study the onset of 3N-SRCs with better accuracy and, for themore »« less
Study of Three-Nucleon Short Range Correlations in Inclusive Electron Scattering

Conference Ye, Zhihong ; Day, Donal

Inclusive electron scattering is a powerful tool to study short range correlations (SRCs) in nuclei. Two nucleon SRCs (2N-SRCs) were first observed in data from SLAC and further studied at Jefferson Lab, appearing, between $1.4 < x< 2$, as plateaus in the per nucleon cross section ratio of heavy to light nuclei. The Jefferson Lab experiments also provided the first evidence of three nucleon SRCs (3N-SRCs) at $x>2$. However, because of limited statistics of the earlier experiments, the scaling behavior of 3N-SRCs is not well established. Jefferson Lab experiment E08014 ran in April and May of 2011 in Hall~A andmore »« less
