Abstract: (Elsevier)

Inelastic electron scattering is considered in the energy and momentum transfer region associated with the quasielastic and 3-3 resonance pion electroproduction peaks. Calculations of two-nucleon ejection via two-body meson-exchange currents (MEC) and of pion electroproduction from threshold through the 3-3 resonance are presented using the Fermi gas model of the nucleus. The MEC contribution is found to be significant in this region, and helps to account for the discrepancy between theory and experiment in the “dip” between the quasielastic and 3-3 resonance peaks.
