Abstract

The reaction O-16(e,e'pp)C-14 has been investigated at three values of the transferred energy omega. The differential cross sections were determined as a function of the missing energy and the missing momentum. Evidence for short-range correlations in O-16 has been obtained from the transition to the ground state of C-14. The cross sections for this transition are well reproduced by two independent parameter-free microscopic calculations. The results of both calculations show that the reaction is dominated by knockout of a proton pair in a S-1(0) state, driven by short-range-correlations. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
