Short-Range Dynamical Correlations inLi6from Electron Elastic Scattering

Abstract

The charge form factor of the ${}_{}{}^6{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Li}$ nucleus was calculated in Born approximation, introducing in the ground-state density Jastrow-type correlations. Good agreement with the experimental data was obtained with different oscillator lengths for $s$ and $p$ nucleons. A diffraction minimum was predicted at a value of the momentum transfer $q\approx 2.8$ ${\mathrm{fm}}^{-1\mathrm{}}$.
