Abstract: (Elsevier)

We present a microscopic evaluation of nuclear momentum distributions for the ground states of 4 He and 16 O. The momentum distribution is the sum of a single particle part and a correlation part. Beyond a momentum of 2 fm −1 the correlation part becomes dominating and exceeds the single particle part by arbitrary orders of magnitude for sufficiently high momenta. Even a quite crude experimental determination of momentum distributions would yield extremely useful information on nuclear correlations.
