We develop the Glauber theory description of final-state interaction (FSI) in quasielastic $A(e,e'p)$ scattering. The important new effect is an interaction between the two trajectories which enter the calculation of FSI-distorted one-body…
When protons and neutrons (nucleons) are bound into atomic nuclei, they are close enough together to feel significant attraction, or repulsion, from the strong, short-distance part of the nucleon-nucleon interaction. These strong…

We measured the cross sections of the $^2$H(p,pp)n breakup reaction at E$_p$=16 MeV in three kinematical configurations: the np final-state interaction (FSI), the co-planar star (CST), and an intermediate-star (IST) geometry. The cross…
Resolution of discrete final states in the $^{16}$O(e,e$'$pp)$^{14}$C reaction may provide an interesting tool to discriminate between contributions from one- and two-body currents in this reaction. This is based on the observation that the…

Characterizing the nature of single-particle states outside of double shell closures is essential to a fundamental understanding of nuclear structure. This is especially true for those doubly magic nuclei that lie far from stability and…

The influence of short-range correlations (SRC) on the triple-coincidence (e,e$'$pp) reactions is studied. The non-relativistic model uses a mean-field potential to account for the distortions that the escaping particles undergo. Apart from…
