Inclusive electron-scattering measurements of A electroexcitation in nuclei are reported. Electrons with energies of 0.96, 1.1, 1.3, and 1.5 GeV were scattered from ^H, "^He, C, Fe, and W at 37.5°, corresponding to g^ =0.20-0.52 (GeV/c)^ at the A peak. The centroid of the A-region cross-section peak is above that for the free nucleon and it shifts to higher invariant mass as g^ increases. The A dependence in the dip region and ratios of nuclear to nucleon integrated cross sections indicate that at these Q^ values there is little specifically nuclear, e.g., quasideuteron, background contribution.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
