Title Ruling out color transparency in quasi-elastic 12C(e,e'p) up to Q^2 of 14.2 (GeV/c)^2
Abstract Quasielastic 12C(e,e'p) scattering was measured at negative 4-momentum transfer squared Q^2= 8, 9.4, 11.4, and 14.2 (GeV/c)^2, the highest ever achieved to date. Nuclear transparency for this reaction was extracted by comparing the measured yield to that expected from a plane-wave impulse approximation calculation without any final state interactions. The measured transparency was consistent with no Q^2 dependence, up to proton momentum scales where earlier A(p,2p) results had indicated a rise in transparency, ruling out the quantum chromodynamics effect of color transparency at the measured Q^2 scales. These results impose strict constraints on models of color transparency for protons.
