Glauber isovector spin responses for (p,n) reactions at 494 MeV
Abstract
The separated isovector spin-longitudinal and spin-transverse responses from a recent (p,n) quasifree experiment at 494 MeV are analyzed in a Glauber theory framework up to two-step contributions. Nuclear correlations are treated in the continuum random phase approximation, accounting for the spreading width of the particle-hole states. A good description of the spin-longitudinal response is achieved, hinting at some evidence of pionic effects in the quasielastic region. The spin-transverse response is underestimated and we show that multistep contributions, while sizable, are not sufficient to provide an explanation of the discrepancy.
