It is shown that, if inclusive lepton scattering off nuclei at high momentum transfer is analyzed in terms of proper scaling variables, useful information on Nucleon-Nucleon short range correlations in nuclei can be obtained. The traditional approach to Y-scaling is critically analyzed and a novel approach to Y-scaling, which incorporates the effects from two- and three-nucleon correlations in nuclei, is illustrated.

The effects of short range correlations in lepton and hadron scattering off nuclei at medium and high energies are discussed.
A linear correlation is found between the magnitude of nucleon-nucleon short-range correlations and the nuclear binding energy per nucleon with pairing energy removed. By using this relation, the strengths of nucleon-nucleon short-range correlations of some unmeasured nuclei are predicted. Discussions on nucleon-nucleon pairing energy and nucleon-nucleon short-range correlations are made. The found nuclear dependence of nucleon-nucleon short-range correlations may shed some lights on the short-range structure of nucleus.
A new linked cluster expansion for the calculation of ground state observables of complex nuclei with realistic interactions has been developed [1-3]; using the V8 potential [4] the ground state energy, density and momentum distribution of complex nu clei have been calculated and found to be in good agreement with the results of [5], obtained within the Fermi Hyper Netted Chain, and Variational Monte Carlo [6] approaches. Using the same cluster expansion, with wave function and correlations Realistic Calculation of the Effects of Nucleon-Nucleon Correlations in High-Energy Scattering Processes Off Nuclei parameters fixed from the calculation of the ground-state observables, the semi-inclusive reaction of type A(e,ep)X has been calculated taking final state interaction effects into account within a Glauber type calculation as in Ref. [7]; the comparison between the resulting distorted and undistorted momentum distributions provides an estimate of the transparency of the nuclear medium to the propagation of the hit proton. The effect of color transparency has also been considered within the approach of [8,9]; it is shown that at high values of Q^2 finite formation time effects strongly reduce the final state interaction, consistently with the idea of a reduced interaction of the hadron produced inside the nucleus [10]. The total neutron-nucleus cross section at high energies has also been calculated [11] by considering the effects of nucleon-nucleon correlations, which are found to increase the cross section by about 10% in disagreement with the experimental data. The inclusion of inelastic shadowing effects of Refs. [12,13] decreases back the cross section, leading to a good agreement between experimental data and theoretical calculations.
Atomic nuclei are complex strongly interacting systems and their exact theoretical description is a long-standing challenge. An approximate description of nuclei can be achieved by separating its short and long range structure. This separation of sca les stands at the heart of the nuclear shell model and effective field theories that describe the long-range structure of the nucleus using a mean- field approximation. We present here an effective description of the complementary short-range structure using contact terms and stylized two-body asymptotic wave functions. The possibility to extract the nuclear contacts from experimental data is presented. Regions in the two-body momentum distribution dominated by high-momentum, close-proximity, nucleon pairs are identified and compared to experimental data. The amount of short-range correlated (SRC) nucleon pairs is determined and compared to measurements. Non-combinatorial isospin symmetry for SRC pairs is identified. The obtained one-body momentum distributions indicate dominance of SRC pairs above the nuclear Fermi-momentum.
Nuclear dynamics at short distances is one of the most fascinating topics of strong interaction physics. The physics of it is closely related to the understanding the role of the QCD in generating nuclear forces at short distances as well as understa nding the dynamics of the super-dense cold nuclear matter relevant to the interior of neutron stars. With an emergence of high energy electron and proton beams there is a significant recent progress in high energy nuclear scattering experiments aimed at studies of short-range structure of nuclei. This in turn stimulated new theoretical studies resulting in the observation of several new phenomena specific to the short range structure of nuclei. In this work we review recent theoretical and experimental progress in studies of short-range correlations in nuclei and their importance for advancing our understanding of the dynamics of nuclear interactions at small distances.
