Momentum-Transfer Dependence Of Nuclear Transparency From The Quasi-Elastic C-12(E,E'P) Reaction

The cross section for quasielastic C-12(e, e'p) scattering has been measured at momentum transfer Q2 = 1, 3, 5, and 6.8 (GeV/c)2. The results are consistent with scattering from a single nucleon as the dominant process. The nuclear transparency is obtained and compared with theoretical calculations that incorporate color transparency effects. No significant rise of the transparency with Q2 is observed.
