Elastic and quasi-elastic electron scattering off isotopic and isotonic chains

摘要

We present theoretical predictions for electron scattering on Z = 20 isotopic and N = 20 isotonic chain. The calculations are done within the framework of the distorted-wave Born approximation for elastic scattering and the plane-wave Born approximation for the QE one. The proton and neutron density distributions are evaluated adopting a relativistic Dirac- Hartree model. We present results for the elastic and quasi-elastic cross sections and for the parity-violating asymmetry and investigate the evolution of nuclear properties as a function of the neutron and proton number. We also present a comparison with the parity-violating asymmetry parameter obtained by the PREX Collaboration on ~(208)Pb.
