Beschreibung:
The atomic nucleus is composed of two different kinds of fermions: protons and neutrons. If the protons and neutrons did not interact, the Pauli exclusion principle would force the majority of fermions (usually neutrons) to have a higher average momentum. Our high-energy electron-scattering measurements using (12)C, (27)Al, (56)Fe, and (208)Pb targets show that even in heavy, neutron-rich nuclei, short-range interactions between the fermions form correlated high-momentum neutron-proton pairs. Thus, in neutron-rich nuclei, protons have a greater probability than neutrons to have momentum greater than the Fermi momentum. This finding has implications ranging from nuclear few-body systems to neutron stars and may also be observable experimentally in two-spin-state, ultracold atomic gas systems.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hen, O -- Sargsian, M -- Weinstein, L B -- Piasetzky, E -- Hakobyan, H -- Higinbotham, D W -- Braverman, M -- Brooks, W K -- Gilad, S -- Adhikari, K P -- Arrington, J -- Asryan, G -- Avakian, H -- Ball, J -- Baltzell, N A -- Battaglieri, M -- Beck, A -- May-Tal Beck, S -- Bedlinskiy, I -- Bertozzi, W -- Biselli, A -- Burkert, V D -- Cao, T -- Carman, D S -- Celentano, A -- Chandavar, S -- Colaneri, L -- Cole, P L -- Crede, V -- D'Angelo, A -- De Vita, R -- Deur, A -- Djalali, C -- Doughty, D -- Dugger, M -- Dupre, R -- Egiyan, H -- El Alaoui, A -- El Fassi, L -- Elouadrhiri, L -- Fedotov, G -- Fegan, S -- Forest, T -- Garillon, B -- Garcon, M -- Gevorgyan, N -- Ghandilyan, Y -- Gilfoyle, G P -- Girod, F X -- Goetz, J T -- Gothe, R W -- Griffioen, K A -- Guidal, M -- Guo, L -- Hafidi, K -- Hanretty, C -- Hattawy, M -- Hicks, K -- Holtrop, M -- Hyde, C E -- Ilieva, Y -- Ireland, D G -- Ishkanov, B I -- Isupov, E L -- Jiang, H -- Jo, H S -- Joo, K -- Keller, D -- Khandaker, M -- Kim, A -- Kim, W -- Klein, F J -- Koirala, S -- Korover, I -- Kuhn, S E -- Kubarovsky, V -- Lenisa, P -- Levine, W I -- Livingston, K -- Lowry, M -- Lu, H Y -- MacGregor, I J D -- Markov, N -- Mayer, M -- McKinnon, B -- Mineeva, T -- Mokeev, V -- Movsisyan, A -- Munoz Camacho, C -- Mustapha, B -- Nadel-Turonski, P -- Niccolai, S -- Niculescu, G -- Niculescu, I -- Osipenko, M -- Pappalardo, L L -- Paremuzyan, R -- Park, K -- Pasyuk, E -- Phelps, W -- Pisano, S -- Pogorelko, O -- Price, J W -- Procureur, S -- Prok, Y -- Protopopescu, D -- Puckett, A J R -- Rimal, D -- Ripani, M -- Ritchie, B G -- Rizzo, A -- Rosner, G -- Roy, P -- Rossi, P -- Sabatie, F -- Schott, D -- Schumacher, R A -- Sharabian, Y G -- Smith, G D -- Shneor, R -- Sokhan, D -- Stepanyan, S S -- Stepanyan, S -- Stoler, P -- Strauch, S -- Sytnik, V -- Taiuti, M -- Tkachenko, S -- Ungaro, M -- Vlassov, A V -- Voutier, E -- Walford, N K -- Wei, X -- Wood, M H -- Wood, S A -- Zachariou, N -- Zana, L -- Zhao, Z W -- Zheng, X -- Zonta, I -- Jefferson Lab CLAS Collaboration -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2014 Oct 31;346(6209):614-7. doi: 10.1126/science.1256785.
