Abstract

Nucleon recoil polarization observables in (e,e'p) reactions are investigated using a semi-relativistic distorted-wave model which includes one- and two-body currents with relativistic corrections. Results for the induced polarization asymmetry are shown for closed-shell nuclei and a comparison with available experimental data for 12C is provided. A careful analysis of meson exchange currents shows that they may affect significantly the induced polarization for high missing momentum.
