Since a long time electron scattering has been envisaged as a powerful and preferential tool to investigate nuclear properties. In particular, the (e,e'p) knockout reaction has provided a wealth of information on the single particle (s.p.)…
New threshold measurements for $\gamma~p\to p~J/\psi \to p~(\mu^+\mu^-)$ by 007 and $\gamma^\ast~p\to p~J/\psi \to p~(e^+e^-)$ by CLAS12 allow us to extend the previous phenomenological determination of the J/\ensuremath{\psi}-proton…

According to quantum chromodynamics, at sufficiently high energy, the structure of hadrons reveals a dynamic equilibrium between gluon splitting and gluon recombination -- a phenomenon known as saturation. The process of diffractive…
