Meson (Photo- and) Electro-Production and the Structure of Nuclei at Short Distances

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSB,volume 142))

Abstract

Over more than half a century, the complementary use of hadronic and electromagnetic probes has led us to a very accurate description of the atomic nucleus in terms of inert nucleons bound together by effective forces. While this simple and economical picture has emerged naturally from the analysis of hadron induced reactions, it is only the advent, fifteen years ago, of high intensity and high energy electron accelerators which has allowed us to put it on solid grounds.

  105. In the original paper, the experimental values have been obtained with a slightly different definition of the flux factor Tv (Eq. 19). I have multiplied the theoretical curves by k/kγ, where kγ = (Q2-m2)/2m is the energy of the real photon which leads to the same TCN invariant mass Q.
