Abstract
A new linked cluster expansion for the calculation of ground state observables of many-body nuclei with realistic interactions has been developed, in order to single out the major contributions to the relevant quantities when Nucleon-Nucleon correlations are taken into account in the wave function. Using the V8′ potential the ground state energy, density and momentum distribution of complex nuclei have been calculated and found to be in good agreement with the results obtained within the Fermi Hyper Netted Chain, and Variational Monte Carlo approaches. Using the same cluster expansion, with wave function and correlations parameters fixed from the calculation of the ground-state observables, we have calculated various high energy scattering processes off complex nuclei. We made use of the Glauber multiple scattering theory, which can be readily included into the cluster expansion we have developed, to take into account final state interaction effects in the semi-inclusive reaction A(e,e′p)X, and calculated the distorted momentum distribution, which is a necessary ingredient to estimate the cross section.
