Inclusive Electroproduction of Forward Protons from Neutron and Proton Targets

Abstract

We report new measurements of the inclusive electroproduction of forward protons carried out at the Wilson Synchrotron Laboratory at Cornell University. Data were taken with deuterium at the ($W, Q^2$) points (2.15 GeV, 1.2 Ge${\mathrm{V}}^2$), (2.15, 4.0), and (3.11, 1.2); data were taken with hydrogen at these points and at the points (2.15, 2.0), (2.67, 3.3), and (3.11, 1.7). The invariant structure function is presented in terms of $W$, $Q^2$, and $\omega$.
