Abstract: (Elsevier)
We present a unified approach to the calculation of the quasielastic electron scattering cross section at different momentum transfer, within the framework of the Fermi gas model. This is achieved by introducing a momentum-dependent potential to describe the nucleon single-particle energy spectrum. At low momentum transfer, q ≈ k F , our results confirm the validity of the often used effective mass approximation. At high momentum transfer, q ≈ 2 k F , the presence of the potential affects the magnitude and shape of the cross section. By fitting the experimental data we obtain information about the value of the proton Fermi momentum which for heavy nuclei turns out to be smaller than that determined from previous calculations.- ELECTRON NUCLEUS: ELASTIC SCATTERING
