Abstract
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 < Q2 < 5.5 GeV2. The data have been used to accurately perform 167 Rosenbluth-type longitudinal / transverse separations. The precision R = sigmaL / sigmaT data are presented here, along with the first separate values of the inelastic structure functions F1 and FL 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 Q2 = 1 GeV2 in the separated structure functions independently.
