Abstract: (APS)
The occupation probabilities of shell-model orbits in the lead region are estimated by the addition of random-phase-approximation corrections to nuclear-matter results. The occupation probabilities of single-particle states in shells just below and above the Fermi energy are found to be ∼ 0.7 and 0.1, respectively. It is shown that these estimates explain the quenching of the single-particle contribution observed in many elastic and inelastic electron-scattering experiments.
