High-energy electron scattering is a clean and precise probe for measurements of hadronic and nuclear structure, with a key role in understanding the role of high-momentum nucleons (and quarks) in nuclei. Jefferson Lab has dramatically…
In view of recent data from the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (JLab) on inclusive electron scattering off nuclei at high momentum transfer (Q^2 > 1 GeV^2) and their current analysis, it is shown that, if the scaling…
The electromagnetic transitions to various low-lying excited states of 16O, 48Ca and 208Pb are calculated within a model which considers the short-range correlations. In general the effects of the correlations are small and do not explain…
