“…The experimental validity of the convergence of this expansion was investigated in Ref. 30 in the case of electron scattering off finite nuclei and nuclear matter, and in Ref. 27 for the neutron scattering from polycrystalline D 2 O at Tϭ20 K. In both cases the experimental scaling function was plotted versus 1/q for fixed values of y and a linear behavior of the data for small values of 1/q was observed.…”

A model-independent procedure is proposed which allows us to obtain the asymptotic scaling function at infinite momentum transfer and a comprehensive assessment of deviations of deep inelastic-neutron-scattering data from a perfect scaling behavior, which are due to the finite values of energy and momentum transfers to the target atom. The procedure is applied to simulated and experimental data on polycrystalline ZrH 2 at Tϭ20 and 290 K. We observe that the impulse approximation, valid for infinite energy and momentum transfers, is not yet completely reached at the finite momentum transfer values q of neutron experiments even at qӍ60 Å Ϫ1 . It is argued that, beyond the specific case of ZrH 2 , this procedure can be used for the description of deep inelastic-neutron scattering from other molecular and atomic systems.

The electromagnetic inclusive responses of polarized 3 He and 3 H are thoroughly investigated at the quasielastic peak for squared momentum transfers up to 2 (GeV /c) 2 , within the plane wave impulse approximation. Great emphasys is put on the effects in the bound-state due to different two-and three-body nuclear forces, and to the Coulomb interaction as well. A careful analysis of the polarized responses allows to select possible experiments for minimizing the model dependence in the extraction of the neutron electromagnetic form factors. In particular, the relevant role played by the proton in the transverse-longitudinal response of polarized 3 He, at low momentum transfer, can be utilized for obtaining valuable information on the proton contribution to the total polarized response and eventually on the neutron charge form factor.

“…The analyses of y scaling (see, e.g., [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]) and superscaling (based on the ψ -scaling variable) (see, e.g., [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21]) phenomena in inclusive electron scattering on nuclei have induced studies of (anti)neutrino-nucleus scattering on the same basis. This allows one to explore fundamental questions of neutrino reactions and neutrino oscillations in relation to the hypothesis of nonzero neutrino masses [22].…”

Neutral current quasielastic (anti)neutrino scattering cross sections on a 12 C target are analyzed using a realistic spectral function S(p,E) that gives a scaling function in accordance with the (e,e ) scattering data. The spectral function accounts for the nucleon-nucleon (NN) correlations by using natural orbitals from the Jastrow correlation method and has a realistic energy dependence. The standard value of the axial mass M A = 1.032 GeV is used in all calculations. The effect of the final-state interaction on the spectral and scaling functions, as well as on the cross sections, is accounted for. A comparison of the calculations with the empirical data of the MiniBooNE and BNL experiments is performed. Our results are analyzed in comparison with those when NN correlations are not included and, also, with results from other theoretical approaches, such as the relativistic Fermi gas, the relativistic mean field, and the relativistic Green's function, as well as with the SuperScaling Approach based on the analysis of quasielastic electron scattering.
