Electro- and photodisintegration of deuterium

Deuteron break-up by inelastic electron scattering or photoabsorption is discussed with emphasis on effects from meson exchange currents and isobar configurationgurations.

Electromagnetic sum rules for light nuclei

Electromagnetic sum rules describe gross features of the electromagnetic structure of nuclei 1). A well known example is the Thomas-Reiche-Kuhn (TRK) sum rule, which relates the integrated total El-absorption cross section to the ground state expectation value of the double commutator of the dipole operator D with the nuclear Hamiltonian. While the k inet ic energy gives a model independent contr ibut ion, i . e . , the classical sum rule ~cl = 60 NZ/A MeV mb, the nuclear twobody potential gives an additional contr ibution in the presence of exchange and/or momentum dependent (or nonlocal) forces. In this case, I
