Electron Scattering for Nuclear and Nucleon Structure / / John Dirk Walecka.
The scattering of high-energy electrons from nuclear and nucleon targets provides a microscope for examining the structure of these tiny objects. The best evidence we have on what nuclei and nucleons actually look like comes from electron scattering. This 2001 book examines the motivation for electr...

Walecka, John Dirk, 1932- author. Electron Scattering for Nuclear and Nucleon Structure / John Dirk Walecka. First edition. Cambridge, United Kingdom : Cambridge University Press, 2022. 1 online resource (378 pages) : illustrations. text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Cambridge monographs on particle physics, nuclear physics, and cosmology Description based on publisher supplied metadata and other sources. The scattering of high-energy electrons from nuclear and nucleon targets provides a microscope for examining the structure of these tiny objects. The best evidence we have on what nuclei and nucleons actually look like comes from electron scattering. This 2001 book examines the motivation for electron scattering and develops the theoretical analysis of the process. It discusses our theoretical understanding of the underlying structure of nuclei and nucleons at appropriate levels of resolution and sophistication, and summarizes experimental electron scattering capabilities. Only a working knowledge of quantum mechanics and special relativity is assumed, making this a suitable textbook for graduate and advanced undergraduate courses. It will also provide a valuable summary and reference for researchers already working in electron scattering and other areas of nuclear and particle physics. This text has been reissued as an Open Access publication on Cambridge Core. Part I. Introduction: 1. Motivation; 2. Pictures of the nucleus; 3. Some optics; 4. Why electron scattering?; 5. Target response surfaces; 6. Why coincidence experiments?; 7. Units and conventions; Part II. General Analysis: 8. Electromagnetic interactions; 9. Multipole analysis; 10. Dirac equation; 11.
