Abstract
We formulate an approximate relativistic framework for an analysis of the 3He(e,e'p)pn and 3He(e,e'n)pp reactions with polarized electrons and 3He in the initial state. Restricting the rescattering series to one term linear in the two-nucleon t-matrix we incorporate various relativistic features when calculating a nuclear current matrix element. These relativistic ingredients encompass the relativistic 3He wave function based on the concept of the Lorentz boosted nucleon-nucleon potential together with the boosted 2N t-matrix, relativistic kinematics and relativistic single-nucleon current operator. This allows us to estimate the magnitude of relativistic effects not included in the standard nonrelativistic approach.
