Description
High momentum components of the nuclear wave-function are believed to arise as a result of short-range NN correlations in the ground state. The 6 GeV era at Jefferson Lab has yielded a wealth of information about these high momentum nucleons across many nuclei, and revealed a tantalizing connection to the EMC effect, possibly linking very different kinematic regimes. Existing measurements will be reviewed and future measurement plans will be discussed.
