Proton Source Size Measurements in theeAeppXReaction

Abstract: Two-proton correlations at small relative momentum q were studied in the eA(3He,4He,C,Fe)-->e(')ppX reaction at E(0)=4.46 GeV using the CLAS detector at Jefferson Lab. The enhancement of the correlation function at small q was found to be in accordance with theoretical expectations. Sizes of the emission region were extracted, and proved to be dependent on A and on the proton momentum. The size of the two-proton emission region for He was measured in eA reactions for the first time.

“…This is also true for the measurement of opposite-sign pions or muons for which the combinatorial method has also been used in the past [96,97]. This method has also been used in the extraction of resonance signals [98] and proton femtoscopy of eA interactions [99]. The combinatorial background is determined by an event-mixing technique.…”

“…The rather moderate drop of the pp source size could be an effect of the decreasing N N cross section in this momentum region such that rescattering of protons becomes less important going to larger k T values which is reflected in smaller source sizes. Such a behaviour was also investigated in e(4.46 GeV)+A reactions [50].…”

“…The e2a data sets detailed in section 5.8 were used, which were measured in 1999 and reported in many published analyses [202][203][204][205][206][207]. These include electron scattering events on 4 He, 12 C, and 56 Fe nuclei at beam energies of 1.159, 2.257 and 4.453 GeV.…”
