The presence of high momentum components in the nuclear wavefunction has been of great interest for many years. Unfortunately high momentum components, associated with the short range correlations (SRC), have been difficult to isolate unambiquously. Inclusive electron scattering cross sections in the quasielastic region have been measured over a wide range of energy and momentum transfers from very light to very heavy nuclei and the scaling analyses of these data can provide useful information on the presence of SRCs and more.
