Item Cross section measurements of charged pion photoproduction in hydrogen and deuterium from 1.1 to 5.5 GeV(2005-04) Zhu, L.Y.; Arrington, J.; Averett, T.; Beise, E.; Calarco, J.; Chang, T.; Chen, J.P.; Chudakov, E.; Coman, M.; Clasie, B.; Crawford, C.; Dieterich, S.; Dohrmann, F.; Dutta, D.; Fissum, K.; Frullani, S.; Gao, H.; Gilman, R.; Glashausser, C.; Gomez, J.; Hafidi, K.; Hansen, O.; Higinbotham, D.W.; Holt, R.J.; de Jager, C.W.; Jiang, X.; Kinney, E.; Kramer, K.; Kumbartzki, G.; LeRose, J.; Liyanage, N.; Mack, D.; Markowitz, P.; McCormick, K.; Meekins, D.; Meziani, Z.-E.; Michaels, R.; Mitchell, J.; Nanda, S.; Potterveld, D.; Ransome, R.; Reimer, P.E.; Reitz, B.; Saha, A.; Schulte, E.C.; Seely, J.; Sirca, S.; Strauch, S.; Sulkosky, V.; Vlahovic, B.; Weinstein, L.B.; Wijesooriya, K.; Williamson, C.; Wojtsekhowski, B.; Xiang, H.; Xiong, F.; Xu, W.; Zeng, J.; Zheng, X.; Jefferson Lab Hall A Collaboration; Jefferson Lab E94-104 CollaborationThe differential cross sections for the γn→π-p and the γp→π+n processes were measured at Jefferson Lab. The photon energies ranged from 1.1 to 5.5 GeV, corresponding to center-of-mass energies from 1.7 to 3.4 GeV. The pion center-of-mass angles varied from 50° to 110°. The π- and π+ photoproduction data both exhibit a global scaling behavior at high energies and high transverse momenta, consistent with the constituent counting rule prediction and the existing π+ data. The data suggest possible substructure of the scaling behavior, which might be oscillations around the scaling value. The data show an enhancement in the scaled cross section at center-of-mass energy near 2.2 GeV. The differential cross section ratios [dσ/dt(γn→π-p)/dσ/dt(γp→π+n)] at high energies and high transverse momenta can be described by calculations based on one-hard-gluon-exchange diagrams.Item Measurement of longitudinal and transverse cross sections in the 3He(e,e′π+)3H reaction at W=1.6 GeV(2001-12) Gaskell, D.; Ahmidouch, A.; Ambrozewicz, P.; Anklin, H.; Arrington, J.; Assamagan, K.; Avery, S.; Bailey, K.; Baker, O.K.; Beedoe, S.; Beise, B.; Breuer, H.; Brown, D.S.; Carlini, R.; Cha, J.; Chant, N.; Cowley, A.; Danagoulian, S.; De Schepper, D.; Dunne, J.; Dutta, D.; Ent, R.; Gan, L.; Gasparian, A.; Geesaman, D.F.; Gilman, R.; Glashausser, C.; Gueye, P.; Harvey, M.; Hashimoto, O.; Hinton, W.; Hofman, G.; Jackson, C.; Jackson, H.E.; Keppel, C.; Kinney, E.; Koltenuk, D.; Lung, A.; Mack, D.; McKee, D.; Mitchell, J.; Mkrtchyan, H.; Mueller, B.; Niculescu, G.; Niculescu, I.; O'Neill, T.G.; Papavassiliou, V.; Potterveld, D.; Reinhold, J.; Roos, P.; Sawafta, R.; Segel, R.; Stepanyan, S.; Tadevosyan, V.; Takahashi, T.; Tang, L.; Terburg, B.; Van Westrum, D.; Volmer, J.; Welch, T.P.; Wood, S.; Yuan, L.; Zeidman, B.; Zihlmann, B.The coherent 3He(e,e′π+)3H reaction was measured at Q2=0.4 (GeV/c)2 and W=1.6 GeV for two values of the virtual photon polarization, ε, allowing the separation of longitudinal and transverse cross sections. The results from the coherent process on 3He were compared to H(e,e′π+)n data taken at the same kinematics. This marks the first direct comparison of these processes. At these kinematics (pπ=1.1 GeV/c), pion rescattering from the spectator nucleons in the 3He(e,e′π+)3H process is expected to be small, simplifying the comparison to π+ production from the free proton.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.
