Nuclear Structure and Dynamics in the 3He(e,e′p)d and 3He(e,e′p)pn Reactions

We studied the reactions 3He(e, e′p)d and 3He(e, e′p)pn in quasi-elastic perpendicular, co-planar kinematics. The transferred energy and momentum were fixed at 840 MeV and 1502 MeV/c respectively. The cross sections were measured up to missing momenta above 1000 MeV/c. For the two-body break-up channel, the ATL asymmetry was measured up to missing momentum of 660 MeV/c. The data are compared to several model calculations and demonstrate an intricate interplay between reaction dynamics and nuclear structure.
