The evolution of single-particle strengths as the neutron-to-proton asymmetry changes informs us of the importance of short- and long-range correlations in nuclei and has therefore been extensively studied for the last two decades.…

Two-neutron knockout reactions from nuclei in the proximity of the proton dripline have been studied using intermediate-energy beams of neutron-deficient $^{34}$Ar, $^{30}$S, and $^{26}$Si. The inclusive cross sections, and also the partial…

The cross section of hard semi-exclusive $A(e,e'N)(A-1)$ reactions for fixed missing energy and momentum is calculated within the eikonal approximation. Relativistic dynamics and kinematics of high energy processes are unambiguously…

Nucleon-removal reactions are a primary tool for extracting single-particle structure of rare isotopes, yet the ratio $R_s=\sigma_{\exp}/\sigma_{\mathrm{th}}$ of measured to theoretical cross sections drops systematically below unity for…
