Measurement of the and cross sections in Jefferson Lab Hall A
Abstract
The E12-14-012 experiment, performed in Jefferson Lab Hall A, has collected exclusive electron-scattering data in parallel kinematics using natural argon and natural titanium targets. In this study we report the first results of the analysis of the data set corresponding to beam energy 2222 GeV, electron scattering angle , and proton emission angle . The differential cross sections, measured with uncertainty, have been studied as a function of missing energy and missing momentum, and compared to the results of Monte Carlo simulations, obtained from a model based on the distorted-wave impulse approximation.
