Abstract
Nuclear response functions for quasielastic electron scattering are investigated in the random phase approximation for the relativistic lagrangian of the σω model. In contrast to the transverse response function, the longitudinal one is strongly affected by particle-hole correlations due to the σ- and ω-meson exchanges. This result is different from the previous understanding in the σω model that the whole effect of the nuclear interactions on the response function would be incorporated into the nucleon effective mass. The Coulomb sum rule is also discussed in the relativistic model.
