Multi-nucleon correlations in Deep Inelastic Scattering at large Bjorken xB

Nuclear Theory 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

Using realistic nuclear many-body wave functions in the collinear factorization framework, we evaluate nuclear Deep Inelastic Scattering at large Bjorken xB, where correlations are needed to exceed the kinematic limits of a single free nucleon. We find that recent experimental data on cross-section ratios from the CLAS collaboration exhibit features that are not reproduced by modern 2- and 3-nucleon correlations in the nuclear wave function. New physical mechanisms are needed to explain data in the 2<xB<3 range.
