Nucleon resonance contributions to unpolarised inclusive electron scattering

2019

The first CLAS12 experiments will provide high-precision data on inclusive electron scattering observables at a photon virtuality Q2 ranging from 0.05 to 12GeV2 and center-of-mass energies W up to 4 GeV. In view of this endeavor, we present the modeling of the resonant contributions to the inclusive electron scattering observables. As input, we use the existing CLAS electrocoupling results obtained from exclusive meson electroproduction data off protons, and evaluate for the first time the resonant contributions based on the experimental results on the nucleon resonance electroexcitation. The uncertainties are given by the data and duly propagated through a Monte Carlo approach. In this way…
