SRC – Physics Two nucleons with large relative momentum and small CM momentum. Short Range Correlation Pair * Large / small momentum is compared to Fermi momentum 2N – SRC
4
Short /intermediate Range Correlations in nuclei Cold-Dense Nuclear Matter (neutron-stars). What SRC in nuclei can tell us about: High – Momentum Component of the Nuclear Wave Function. The Strong Short-Range Force Between Nucleons. tensor force, repulsive core, 3N forces Nucleon structure modification in the medium ? EMC and SRC e e/e/ q 2N – SRC A~10 57
