Modeling Final-State Interactions with a Relativistic Multiple-Scattering Approximation Relativistic Description of Two- and Three-Body Systems in Nuclear Physics, ECT∗,

Abstract We address the issue of nuclear attenuation in nucleon and pion knockout reactions. A selection of results from a model based on a relativistic multiple-scattering approximation is presented. We show trans-parency calculations for pion electroproduction on several nuclei, where data are in very good agreement with calculations including color transparency. Secondly, we discuss the density dependence of reactions involving one or double proton knockout. The latter reaction succeeds in probing the high density regions in the deep interior of the nucleus.
