Description
Recent data mining analyses from the CLAS experiment at Jefferson Lab have enabled detection of neutrons from the hard break up of Short-Range Correlated (SRC) pairs, leading to the observation that protons are disproportionately represented in high momentum states in neutron-rich nuclei. Here we seek to determine whether neutrons speed up in proton-rich nuclei by studying the proton-rich nucleus 3He using data from the CLAS eg2 experiment. This talk will present 3He(e,e'n)/3He(e,e'p) ratios in the mean field and in the short-range correlated pair regime, with comparisons to theoretical predictions in the Plane-Wave Impulse Approximation using 3-body spectral functions.
