Abstract
A successful analytical formula for the proton momentum distribution in all nuclei with A>4 accounting for nucleon-nucleon correlation effects, is presented. In this formula the Isomorphic Shell Model wave functions are employed, which are readily available for all nuclei all the way up to 2 0 8Pb. However, other wave functions (e.g., shell model or Hartree-Fock) could be used with almost equivalent results. Available experimental data for 4He, 1 2C and 5 6Fe and predictions of other theories, e.g., for 4 0Ca, are used for comparison of the predictions of the present formula. A reservation is kept concerning the validity of this formula for the momentum distribution of exotic nuclei.
