Chapter 2. Relativistic Eikonal A(p, pN) Formalism 25The zero-range approximation along the scatter<strong>in</strong>g direction offers the possibility to expressthe multiple-scatter<strong>in</strong>g wave function <strong>in</strong> terms of the experimentally determ<strong>in</strong>ed profilefunction, thereby avoid<strong>in</strong>g the technical complications with respect to potential scatter<strong>in</strong>g. Thezero-range approximationV c ( ⃗ b − ⃗ b j , z ′ − z j ) ≃ V ⊥c ( ⃗ b − ⃗ b j ) δ(z ′ − z j ) , (2.69)amounts to neglect<strong>in</strong>g the f<strong>in</strong>ite longitud<strong>in</strong>al dimension of the NN <strong>in</strong>teraction region. Afterexp<strong>and</strong><strong>in</strong>g expression (2.68) for Ŝ <strong>and</strong> adopt<strong>in</strong>g the zero-range approximation, one obta<strong>in</strong>sŜ ≃A∏j=2(1 − i M )NK V c ⊥ ( ⃗ b − ⃗ b j ) θ(z ′ − z j ). (2.70)Us<strong>in</strong>g the relation (2.58) between the profile function <strong>and</strong> the phase-shift function, a similarreason<strong>in</strong>g leads toΓ NN (K, ⃗ b) ≃ i M NK V ⊥c ( ⃗ b) . (2.71)F<strong>in</strong>ally, the Glauber operator becomesŜ (⃗r, ⃗r 2 , ⃗r 3 , . . . , ⃗r A ) ≡A∏ [1 − Γ NN(K, ⃗ b − ⃗ )b jj=2]θ (z − z j ), (2.72)where the step function θ (z − z j ) ensures that the nucleon only <strong>in</strong>teracts with other nucleonsif they are localized <strong>in</strong> its forward propagation path.2.3.3 RMSGA for A(p, pN) ReactionsThe Glauber operators <strong>in</strong> Eq. (2.36) take the formsŜ p1 (⃗r, ⃗r 2 , ⃗r 3 , . . . , ⃗r A ) =Ŝ k1 (⃗r, ⃗r 2 , ⃗r 3 , . . . , ⃗r A ) =Ŝ k2 (⃗r, ⃗r 2 , ⃗r 3 , . . . , ⃗r A ) =A∏ [1 − Γ pN(p 1 , ⃗ b − ⃗ )b jj=2A∏j=2A∏j=2]θ (z − z j )( [1 − Γ pN k 1 , ⃗ b ′ − ⃗ )b ′ j θ ( z ′ j − z ′)] ,[ (1 − Γ Nk2 N k 2 , ⃗ b ′′ − ⃗ )b ′′j, (2.73a)θ ( z ′′j − z ′′)] ,(2.73b)(2.73c)where N k2 = p (n) for A(p, 2p) (A(p, pn)) reactions. Further, ⃗r denotes the collision po<strong>in</strong>t<strong>and</strong> (⃗r 2 , ⃗r 3 , . . . , ⃗r A ) are the positions of the frozen spectator protons <strong>and</strong> neutrons <strong>in</strong> the target.The ( ⃗ b, z), ( ⃗ b ′ , z ′ ), <strong>and</strong> ( ⃗ b ′′ , z ′′ ) coord<strong>in</strong>ate systems are def<strong>in</strong>ed as <strong>in</strong> Section 2.2.2. The stepfunctions guarantee that the <strong>in</strong>com<strong>in</strong>g proton can only <strong>in</strong>teract with those spectator nucleonsit encounters before the hard collision <strong>and</strong> that the outgo<strong>in</strong>g protons can only <strong>in</strong>teract with thespectator nucleons they f<strong>in</strong>d <strong>in</strong> their forward propagation paths.
