Recent Studies of Nucleon-Nucleon Short-Range Correlations with A(e,e'p) Reactions.

ORAL

Abstract

The reaction A(e,e'p) has been used extensively to study short-range nucleon-nucleon correlations. ~We shall review recent such studies at high transferred momenta, and will present new results from Hall A at the Jefferson Laboratory at $x_B >1$ kinematics. ~In light of these results, we shall discuss the advantages and limitations of the A(e,e'p) reaction for the purpose of studying short-range two-nucleon correlations.
