Abstract
The break up of the deuteron is studied at high Q2 kinematics, with main motivation to probe the deuteron at small internucleon distances. For this, two main issues are studied: electromagnetic interaction of the virtual photon with the bound nucleon and the strong interactions of the produced baryons in the final state of the reaction. Within virtual nucleon approximation we developed a new prescription to account for the bound nucleon effects in the electromagnetic interaction. The final state interaction at high Q2 kinematics is calculated within generalized eikonal approximation (GEA). Comparison with the first experimental data confirm GEA’s early prediction that the rescattering is maximal at ∼70° of recoil nucleon production relative to the momentum of the virtual photon. Also the forward recoil nucleon angles are best suited for studies of the deuteron at small distances.
