Comparing proton momentum distributions in A = 2 and 3 nuclei via 2H 3H and 3He (e,e′p) measurements
We report the first measurement of the $(e,e'p)$ reaction cross-section ratios for Helium-3 ($^3$He), Tritium ($^3$H), and Deuterium ($d$). The measurement covered a missing momentum range of $40 \le p_{miss} \le 550$ MeV$/c$, at large momentum transfer ($\langle Q^2 \rangle \approx 1.9$ (GeV$/c$)$^2$) and $x_B>1$, which minimized contributions from non quasi-elastic (QE) reaction mechanisms. The data is compared with plane-wave impulse approximation (PWIA) calculations using realistic spectral functions and momentum distributions. The measured and PWIA-calculated cross-section ratios for $^3$He$/d$ and $^3$H$/d$ extend to just above the typical nucleon Fermi-momentum ($k_F \approx 250$ …
ϒ photoproduction on the proton at the Electron-Ion Collider
We present a dispersive analysis with the aim to extract the $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Upsilon}}\text{\ensuremath{-}}p$ scattering length from $\ensuremath{\gamma}p\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Upsilon}}p$ experiments. In this framework, the imaginary part of the $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Upsilon}}\text{\ensuremath{-}}p$ forward scattering amplitude is obtained from $\ensuremath{\gamma}p\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Upsilon}}p$ cross section measurements and is constrained at high energies from existing HERA and LHC data. Its real part is calculated through a once-subtracted dispersion relation, and the subtraction constant is proportional to the $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\…
