20.500.12556/RUL-171482 Inclusive studies of two- and three-nucleon short-range correlations in $^3$H and $^3$He Inclusive electron scattering at carefully chosen kinematics can isolate scattering from the high-momentum nucleons in short-range correlations (SRCs). SRCs are produced by the hard, short-distance interactions of nucleons in the nucleus, and because the two-nucleon (2N) SRCs arise from the same N-N interaction in all nuclei, the cross section in the SRC-dominated regime is identical up to an overall scaling factor. This scaling behavior has been used to identify SRC dominance and to measure the contribution of SRCs in a wide range of nuclei. We examine this scaling behavior over a range of momentum transfers using new data on $^2$H, $^3$H, and $^3$He, and find an expanded scaling region compared to heavy nuclei. Motivated by this improved scaling, we examine the $^3$H and $^3$He data in kinematics where three-nucleon SRCs may play an important role. The data for the largest struck nucleon momenta are consistent with isolation of scattering from three-nucleon SRCs, and suggest that the very highest momentum nucleons in $^3$He have a nearly isospin-independent momentum configuration. experimental nuclear physics nuclear reactions eksperimentalna jedrska fizika jedrske reakcije true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2025-08-27 08:37:57 2025-08-27 08:37:58 2025-09-03 03:47:52 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 6 str. art. no. 139734 Vol. 868 Sep. 2025 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 539.12 1873-2445 10.1016/j.physletb.2025.139734 246722563 PLB_868_2025_139734.pdf PLB_868_2025_139734.pdf 1 74A6EA01F65786C19501EC0F744ED2BC 3bf01d841eb6d77089357c68e1fbb5cb072ad4b08ae64dc66b2776642d7add1e a416fbc2-8310-11f0-9328-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=214813 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0370269325004952?via%3Dihub#ab0010 0 aa773dbc-8310-11f0-9328-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=214814 Fakulteta za matematiko in fiziko 0 0 0
