We report the cross sections at the proton center-of-mass angles of 36°, 52°, 69°, and 89°. These results are in reasonable agreement with previous measurements at lower energy. The 89° and 69° data show constituent-counting-rule behavior up to 4.0 GeV photon energy. The 52° and 36° data disagree with the counting-rule behavior. The quantum chromodynamics (QCD) model of nuclear reactions involving reduced amplitudes disagrees with the present data.Item Quasifree (e,e′p) Reactions and Proton Propagation in Nuclei(American Physical Society, 1998-06-08) Abbott, D.; Ahmidouch, A.; Amatuni, Ts. A.; Armstrong, C.; Arrington, J.; Assamagan, K.A.; Bailey, K.; Baker, O.K.; Barrow, S.; Beard, K.; Beatty, D.; Beedoe, S.; Beise, E.; Belz, E.; Bochna, C.; Breuer, H.; Bruins, E.E.W.; Carlini, R.; Cha, J.; Chant, N.; Cothran, C.; Cummings, W.J.; Danagoulian, S.; Day, D.; DeSchepper, D.; Ducret, J.-E.; Duncan, F.; Dunne, J.; Dutta, D.; Eden, T.; Ent, R.; Fortune, H.T.; Frolov, V.; Geesaman, D.F.; Gao, H.; Gilman, R.; Gueye, P.; Hansen, J.O.; Hinton, W.; Holt, R.J.; Jackson, C.; Jackson, H.E.; Jones, C.E.; Kaufman, S.; Kelly, J.J.; Keppel, C.; Khandaker, M.; Kim, W.; Kinney, E.; Klein, A.; Koltenuk, D.; Kramer, L.; Lorenzon, W.; McFarlane, K.; Mack, D.J.; Madey, R.; Markowitz, P.; Martin, J.; Mateos, A.; Meekins, D.; Miller, M.A.; Milner, R.; Mitchell, J.; Mohring, R.; Mkrtchyan, H.; Nathan, A.M.; Niculescu, G.; Niculescu, I.; O'Neill, T.G.; Potterveld, D.; Price, J.W.; Reinhold, J.; Salgado, C.; Schiffer, J.O.; Segel, R.E.; Stoler, P.; Suleiman, R.; Tadevosyan, V.; Tang, L.; Terburg, B.; van Westrum, D.; Welch, P.; Williamson, C.; Wood, S.; Yan, C.; Yang, Jae-Choon; Yu, J.; Zeidman, B.; Zhao, W.; Zihlmann, B.The ( e,e′p) reaction was studied on targets of C, Fe, and Au at momentum transfers squared Q2 of 0.6, 1.3, 1.8, and 3.3 GeV2 in a region of kinematics dominated by quasifree electron-proton scattering. Missing energy and missing momentum distributions are reasonably well described by plane wave impulse approximation calculations with Q2 and A dependent corrections that measure the attenuation of the final state protons.Item Quasielastic (e,e′p) reaction on 12C,56Fe, and 197Au(2003-12) Dutta, D.; van Westrum, D.; Abbott, D.; Ahmidouch, A.; Amatuni, A.; Armstrong, C.; Arrington, J.; Assamagan, K.A.; Bailey, K.; Baker, O.K.; Barrow, S.; Beard, K.; Beatty, D.; Beedoe, S.; Beise, E.; Belz, E.; Bochna, C.; Bosted, P.E.; Breuer, H.; Bruins, E.E.W.; Carlini, R.; Cha, J.; Chant, N.; Cothran, C.; Cummings, W.J.; Danagoulian, S.; Day, D.; DeSchepper, D.; Ducret, J.-E.; Duncan, F.; Dunne, J.; Eden, T.; Ent, R.; Fortune, H.T.; Frolov, V.; Geesaman, D.F.; Gao, H.; Gilman, R.; Gueye, P.; Hansen, J.O.; Hinton, W.; Holt, R.J.; Jackson, C.; Jackson, H.E.; Jones, C.; Kaufman, S.; Kelly, J.J.; Keppel, C.; Khandaker, M.; Kim, W.; Kinney, A.; Klein, A.; Koltenuk, D.; Kramer, L.; Lorenzon, W.; Lung, A.; McFarlane, K.; Mack, D.J.; Madey, R.; Markowitz, P.; Martin, J.; Mateos, A.; Meekins, D.; Miller, M.A.; Milner, R.; Mitchell, J.; Mohring, R.; Mkrtchyan, H.; Nathan, A.M.; Niculescu, G.; Niculescu, I.; O'Neill, T.G.; Potterveld, D.; Price, J.W.; Reinhold, J.; Salgado, C.; Schiffer, J.P.; Segel, R.E.; Stoler, P.; Suleiman, R.; Tadevosyan, V.; Tang, L.; Terburg, B.; Welch, T.P.; Williamson, C.; Wood, S.; Yan, C.; Yang, J.-C.; Yu, J.; Zeidman, B.; Zhao, W.; Zihlmann, B.We report the results from a systematic study of the quasielastic (e,e′p) reaction on 12C, 56Fe, and 197Au performed at Jefferson Lab. We have measured nuclear transparency and extracted spectral functions (corrected for radiation) over a Q2 range of 0.64–3.25 (GeV∕c)2 for all three nuclei. In addition, we have extracted separated longitudinal and transverse spectral functions at Q2 of 0.64 and 1.8 (GeV∕c)2 for these three nuclei (except for 197Au at the higher Q2). The spectral functions are compared to a number of theoretical calculations. The measured spectral functions differ in detail but not in overall shape from most of the theoretical models. In all three targets the measured spectral functions show considerable excess transverse strength at Q2=0.64 (GeV∕c)2, which is much reduced at 1.8 (GeV∕c)2.Item Separated spectral functions for the quasifree 12C(e,e′p) reaction(2000-05) Dutta, D.; van Westrum, D.; Abbott, D.; Ahmidouch, A.; Amatuni, A.; Armstrong, C.; Arrington, J.; Assamagan, K.A.; Bailey, K.; Baker, O.K.; Barrow, S.; Beard, K.; Beatty, D.; Beedoe, S.; Beise, E.; Belz, E.; Bochna, C.; Bosted, P.E.; Breuer, H.; Bruins, E.E.W.; Carlini, R.; Cha, J.; Chant, N.; Chrien, R.E.; Cothran, C.; Cummings, W.J.; Danagoulian, S.; Day, D.; DeSchepper, D.; Ducret, J.-E.; Duncan, F.; Dunne, J.; Eden, T.; Ent, R.; Fortune, H.T.; Frolov, V.; Geesaman, D.F.; Gao, H.; Gilman, R.; Gue`ye, P.; Hansen, J.O.; Hinton, W.; Holt, R.J.; Jackson, C.; Jackson, H.E.; Jones, C.; Kaufman, S.; Kelly, J.J.; Keppel, C.; Khandaker, M.; Kim, W.; Kinney, E.; Klein, A.; Koltenuk, D.; Kramer, L.; Lorenzon, W.; McFarlane, K.; Mack, D.J.; Madey, R.; Markowitz, P.; Martin, J.; Mateos, A.; Meekins, D.; Meier, E.; Miller, M.A.; Milner, R.; Mitchell, J.; Mohring, R.; Mkrtchyan, H.; Nathan, A.M.; Niculescu, G.; Niculescu, I.; O'Neill, T.G.; Potterveld, D.; Price, J.W.; Reinhold, J.; Salgado, C.; Schiffer, J.P.; Segel, R.E.; Stoler, P.; Suleiman, R.; Sawafta, R.; Sutter, R.J.; Tadevosyan, V.; Tang, L.; Terburg, B.; Welch, T.P.; Williamson, C.; Wood, S.; Yan, C.; Jae-Choon, Yang; Yu, J.; Zeidman, B.; Zhao, W.; Zihlmann, B.A separation of the longitudinal and transverse 12C(e,e′p) cross sections in the quasifree region has been performed in parallel kinematics at Q2 of 0.64 and 1.8 GeV2 for initial proton momentum <80 MeV. The separated transverse and longitudinal spectral functions at Q2=0.64GeV2 show significant differences for missing energy between 25 and 60 MeV indicating a breakdown in the single nucleon knockout picture. The transverse spectral functions exhibit definite momentum transfer dependence.Item Coherent π0 photoproduction on the deuteron up to 4 GeV(1999-09) Meekins, D.G.; Abbott, D.J.; Ahmidouch, A.; Armstrong, C.S.; Arrington, J.; Assamagan, K.A.; Baker, O.K.; Barrow, S.P.; Beatty, D.P.; Beck, D.H.; Beedoe, S.Y.; Beise, E.J.; Belz, J.E.; Bochna, C.; Bosted, P.E.; Brash, E.J.; Breuer, H.; Cadman, R.V.; Cardman, L.; Carlini, R.D.; Cha, J.; Chant, N.S.; Collins, G.; Cothran, C.; Cummings, W.J.; Danagoulian, S.; Duncan, F.A.; Dunne, J.A.; Dutta, D.; Eden, T.; Ent, R.; Filippone, B.W.; Forest, T.A.; Fortune, H.T.; Frolov, V.V.; Gao, H.; Geesaman, D.F.; Gilman, R.; Gueye, P.L.J.; Gustafsson, K.K.; Hansen, J.-O.; Harvey, M.; Hinton, W.; Holt, R.J.; Jackson, H.E.; Keppel, C.E.; Khandaker, M.A.; Kinney, E.R.; Klein, A.; Koltenuk, D.M.; Kumbartzki, G.; Lung, A.F.; Mack, D.J.; Madey, R.; Markowitz, P.; McFarlane, K.W.; McKeown, R.D.; Meziani, Z.-E.; Miller, M.A.; Mitchell, J.H.; Mkrtchyan, H.G.; Mohring, R.M.; Napolitano, J.; Nathan, A.M.; Niculescu, G.; Niculescu, I.; O'Neill, T.G.; Owen, B.R.; Pate, S.F.; Potterveld, D.H.; Price, J.W.; Rakness, G.L.; Ransome, D.; Reinhold, J.; Rutt, P.M; Salgado, C.W.; Savage, G.; Segel, R.E.; Simicevic, N.; Stoler, P.; Suleiman, R.; Tang, L.; Terburg, B.P.; van Westrum, D.; Vulcan, W.F.; Williamson, S.E.; Witkowski, M.T.; Wood, S.A.; Yan, C.; Zeidman, B.The differential cross section for 2H(γ,d)π0 has been measured at deuteron center-of-mass angles of 90° and 136°. This work reports the first data for this reaction above a photon energy of 1 GeV, and permits a test of the apparent constituent counting rule and reduced nuclear amplitude behavior as observed in elastic ed scattering. Measurements were performed up to a photon energy of 4.0 GeV, and are in good agreement with previous lower energy measurements. Overall, the data are inconsistent with both constituent-counting rule and reduced nuclear amplitude predictions.
