Charged pion electroproduction, a selective probe of nuclear spin-isospin responses

  • 1. Lyon-1 Univ., 69 - Villeurbanne (France). Inst. de Physique Nucleaire

Description

We study the reaction of pion electroproduction on nuclei in the quasi-elastic region. We show that detection of the pion in the direction of the virtual photon permits the separation of the longitudinal and transverse spin responses through a Rosenbluth plot. Emphasis is also put on consistency between medium effects and gauge invariance. (orig.)
