Abstract

The (e,e^′p) reaction has proven to be a useful tool for studying specific aspects of the nucleus. The Jefferson Lab continuous electron beam accelerator facility (CEBAF) along with the high resolution spectrometers in the Hall A end station allow this reaction to be studied in kinematics heretofore unaccessible. In this paper the results of the Jefferson Lab Hall A ³He(e,e^′p)d and ³He(e,e^′p)pn measurements, performed at a fixed q=1.5 GeV/c and ω=840 MeV, will be presented along with theoretical calculations by G. Salme, J.-M. Laget, and J. Udias.
