y-Scaling in quasi-elastic electron scattering by nuclei

y-скейлинг в квази-упругом рассеянии электронов на ядрах

Summary

y-scaling in quasi-elastic electron scattering from nuclei is discussed paying particular attention to the question of the definition of the scaling variable. By analysing recent experimental data on12C, it is shown that the scaling functionF(y) should be defined in terms of a new scaling variabley 1 which takes explicitly into account the effects from finite nuclear masses and nucleon binding; in the asymptotic limity 1 goes over into the usual scaling variabley 0=Mω/qq/2. Some open problems concerningy-scaling in3He are also discussed.

Riassunto

Si discutono gli effetti di scala nei processi di diffusione quasi elastica di elettroni da nuclei, con particolare riguardo al problema della definizione della variabile di scalay. Si propone una nuova variabile di scalay 1 nella quale si tiene conto delle dimensioni finite dei nuclei e del legame dei nucleoni; nel limite asintoticoy 1 si trasforma nell’usuale variabiley 0=Mω/qq/2. Si presenta un’analisi dei dati sperimentali su12C in termini diy 0 ey 1 e si discutono anche alcuni problemi riguardanti gli effetti di scala in3He.

Резюме

Обсуждаетсяy-скейлинг в квази-упругом рассеянии электронов на ядрах. Особое внимание уделяется определению переменной подобия. Анализируя недавние экспериментальные данные для12C, показывается, что функция подобияF(y) должна быть определена через новую переменную подобияy 1; которая учитывает в явном виде эффекты конечных масс ядер и связь нуклонов. В асимптотическом пределеy 1 переходит в обычную переменную подобияy 0=Mω/qq/2. Также обсуждаются некоторые открытые проблемы, касающиесяy-скейлинга в3He.
