Content:
• Short introduction on (e,e’p) reaction• Kinematics and Cross Section review• Performed Optimizations/Calibrations• Applied cuts• Cross section results for E01020 experiment
• RTL response function results
• Summary
General Diagram of the 2H (e,e’p)n Reaction
High momentum q=(q0,q) is transferred to the deuteron nucleuspm = q-pf is the missing momentum
Kinematics
q=(,q) where = e-e’ and q=ki-kf
Pd=(MD,0)
Final state: Pf=(Ep,pf) and PR =(En,pn)
Q2= -q2 = q2-2 = 4e.e’sin2(e/2)
xBjorken variable: Q2/m.
momentum conservation: q + Pd = Pf + PR
x = 1 - Tn/mn -2Tn + q.pn/mn.
x>1 => PR||q <=> nq close to 00
x<1 => pR||-q <=> nq close to 1800
Theoretical CalculationGlauber Approximation
General Eikonal Approximation
• Shows that relativistic kinematics are important: The interaction is not instantaneous (the nucleons are at rest - GA)
• A software rectangular cut was applied at the focal plane
• R function cut : R function was calculated for both experimental data and mceep and compared.
• Looked at the ratio between Rfn_exp to Rfn_mceep to determine in which range is linear
• R function cut : 0<rfn<0.03
