We investigate the QED Compton process (QEDCS) in $e p \to e \gamma p$ and $e p \to e \gamma X$, together with the major background coming from the virtual Compton scattering (VCS), where the photon is emitted from the hadronic vertex. We…
We have measured the nuclear transparency of the fundamental process $\gamma$ n $\to \pi^-$ p in $^4$He. These measurements were performed at Jefferson Lab in the photon energy range of 1.6 to 4.5 GeV and at $\theta^{\pi}_{cm}= 70^\circ$…
Transverse momentum spectra up to 4.5 GeV/c around midrapidity of pi^{+/-}, p, pbar, K^{+/-} in Pb+Pb reactions were measured at sqrt{s_{NN}}=17.3 GeV by the CERN-NA49 experiment. The nuclear modification factors R_{AA} for pi^{+/-} and…
