We calculate transverse response functions for quasi-elastic electron scattering at high momentum transfers in a relativistic Hartree approximation in configuration space. We treat the excitation of the $Delta$ resonance using its free mass and width. Good agreement with experiment is found in the dip region.

Reliable estimates of neutrino-nucleus reactions in the resonance-excitation region play an important role in many of the on-going and planned neutrino oscillation experiments. We study here neutrino-nucleus reactions in the delta-particle excitation region with the use of neutrino pion-production amplitudes calculated in a formalism in which the resonance contributions and the background amplitudes are treated on the same footing. Our approach leads to the neutrino-nucleus reaction cross sections that are significantly different from those obtained in the conventional approach wherein only the pure resonance amplitudes are taken into account. To assess the reliability of our formalism, we calculate the electron-nucleus scattering cross sections in the same theoretical framework; the calculated cross sections agree reasonably well with the existing data.
We present a unified relativistic approach to inclusive electron scattering based on the relativistic Fermi gas model and on a phenomenological extension of it which accounts for the superscaling behaviour of $(e,e)$ data. We present results in the $Delta$ resonance region and in the highly inelastic domain and show some application to neutrino scattering.
The 3He transverse electron scattering response function R_T(q,omega) is calculated in the quasi-elastic peak region and beyond for momentum transfers q = 500, 600 and 700 MeV/c. Distinct from our previous work for these kinematics where we included meson exchange currents and relativistic corrections we now additionally include Delta isobar currents (Delta-IC). The Delta-IC contribution increases the quasi-elastic peak height by about 5% and leads to an excellent agreement with experimental data in the whole peak region. In addition it is shown that effects due to the three-nucleon force largely cancel those due to the Delta-IC in the peak region. Finally, we have found that Delta-IC are important for three-body break-up reactions in the so-called dip region. This could explain why in a previous study of such a reaction, where Delta degrees of freedom were not included, no agreement between experimental and theoretical results could be obtained.
We report on a detailed study of longitudinal strength in the nucleon resonance region, presenting new results from inclusive electron-proton cross sections measured at Jefferson Lab Hall C in the four-momentum transfer range 0.2 < Q^2 < 5.5 GeV^2. The data have been used to accurately perform 167 Rosenbluth-type longitudinal / transverse separations. The precision R = sigma_L / sigma_T data are presented here, along with the first separate values of the inelastic structure functions F_1 and F_L in this regime. The resonance longitudinal component is found to be significant, both in magnitude and in the existence of defined mass peaks. Additionally, quark-hadron duality is here observed above Q^2 = 1 GeV^2 in the separated structure functions independently.
The transverse electron scattering response function of 3He was recently studied by us in the quasi-elastic peak region for momentum transfers q between 500 and 700 MeV/c. Those results, obtained using the Active Nucleon Breit frame (ANB), are here supplemented by calculations in the laboratory, Breit and ANB frames using the two-fragment model discussed in our earlier work on the frame dependence of the the longitudinal response function R_L(q,omega). We find relatively frame independent results and good agreement with experiment especially for the lower momentum transfers. This agreement occurs when we neglect an omega-dependent piece of the one-body current relativistic correction. An inclusion of this term leads however to a rather pronounced frame dependence at q=700 MeV/c. A discussion of this term is given here. This report also includes a correction to our previous ANB results for R_T(q,omega).
