Abstract

The experimental values of longitudinal and transverse response functions of the ${}^{12}$C nucleus have been obtained at the 3-momentum transfer $q=300$ MeV/c. The data are compared with the calculations made with due regard to the dynamics of all the nucleons constituting the ${}^{12}$C nucleus, and also, to the contributions of both the one-body currents only, and their combination with two-body currents.
