Abstract.

The role of rescattering due to the final state interaction (FSI) and the influence of the finite formation time (FFT) on the inclusive D(e,e′)X and exclusive D(e,ep)n electro-disintegration of the deuteron are studied in the cumulative kinematical region x>1 and moderate values of the 4-momentum transfer Q 2=2÷ 10 (GeV/c)2. The spins are averaged out. It is found that in the inclusive process the relative magnitude of rescattering steadily grows with x and that at x=1.7 it has the same order as the plane wave impulse approximation (PWIA) contribution, with the finite formation time effects decreasing the rescattering contribution by ~ 30%. In the exclusive process, with increasing momentum transfer, FFT substantially reduces the effects from FSI, although the latter are still appreciable in the region of momentum transfer investigated.
