Chapter 6<br />
F<strong>in</strong>al State Interactions <strong>and</strong> the<br />
Eikonal Approximation<br />
In the previous chapter we have discussed various methods to treat the f<strong>in</strong>al state<br />
<strong>in</strong>teractions <strong>in</strong> exclusive A(e, e ′ p) reactions. In this chapter all of these different<br />
approximations will be put to a str<strong>in</strong>gent test. This will be done by compar<strong>in</strong>g calculated<br />
A(e, e ′ p) observables with exclusive 16 O(⃗e, e ′ ⃗p) <strong>and</strong> 12 C(⃗e, e ′ ⃗p) data that have<br />
recently been collected at Jefferson Lab (JLAB) <strong>and</strong> the Stanford L<strong>in</strong>ear Accelerator<br />
(SLAC) facility.<br />
6.1 16 O(e, e ′ p) 15 N<br />
We start our (e, e ′ p) <strong>in</strong>vestigations with<strong>in</strong> the relativistic eikonal approximation for<br />
the k<strong>in</strong>ematics of an 16 O(e, e ′ p) experiment that was recently performed at Jefferson<br />
Lab (E89-003) [15]. The ma<strong>in</strong> objectives of this experiment were to determ<strong>in</strong>e<br />
[15, 85]<br />
• the limits of the validity of the s<strong>in</strong>gle-particle model of valence proton knockout<br />
• the effects of relativity <strong>and</strong> sp<strong>in</strong>or distortion on valence proton knockout us<strong>in</strong>g<br />
the diffractive character of the A LT asymmetry (with the term “diffractive”<br />
we refer to the behaviour of the experimental asymmetry at higher miss<strong>in</strong>g<br />
momenta)<br />
• the bound state wave function <strong>and</strong> spectroscopic factors for knockout from the<br />
valence shells<br />
• the longitud<strong>in</strong>al component of the (e, e ′ p) cross section at higher miss<strong>in</strong>g energies<br />
(through the R T L response function).<br />
