Abstract

The nuclear response functions for high energy electron scattering were calculated in the wide region of excitation energy. The three typical regions were studied: the quasi-elastic region, the Δ-excitation region and the intermediate region where the meson-exchange currents give significant contribution. In the quasi-elastic and the Δ regions the response functions were found for finite size nucleus with account of relativistic kinematics. The contribution of the meson-exchange currents was calculated in the relativistic Fermi-gas model. The results were compared with the electron scattering data at high momentum transfer from 12C and 16O.
