Simple 3He(e,e’n) - PWIA◦ Ideally, the only interaction that
occurs is when the incoming electron hits the neutron
◦ This model is called Plane Wave Impulse Approximation (PWIA)
◦ PWIA predicts the single-spin target asymmetry, Ay
0, to be exactly zero

3He(e,e’n) Complications◦ Since other nucleons exist in
the 3He nucleus, they cause secondary effects that must be taken into account
◦ These effects, particularly FSIs, cause Ay
0 to be non-zero
12/17/2013
◦ Final State Interactions (FSI)
◦ Meson Exchange Currents (MEC)

Current Measurements◦Ay
0 data will test state-of-the-art calculations at high Q2
◦Neutron physics extracted from 3He (such as EM form factors) must correctly predict this asymmetry
◦Any non-zero result indicates higher order effects

Simple 3He(e,e’n) - PWIA◦ Ideally, the only interaction that
occurs is when the incoming electron hits the neutron
◦ This model is called Plane Wave Impulse Approximation (PWIA)
◦ PWIA predicts the single-spin target asymmetry, Ay
0, to be exactly zero

TheMeasurements
• To find misidentified protons, apply neutron cuts to H(e,e’p)
• Find ratio of protons:neutrons from 3He(e,e’n) and 3He(e,e’p)
• Using and total measured He events in HRS, find expected number of protons and neutrons thrown at HAND
• Include to estimate number of misidentified protons in 3He
• Use to calculate proton dilution factor
Hall A Neutron Detector (HAND)• Proton contamination
• Details in E. Long, Ph.D. Thesis, Kent State University, 2012 (arXiv:1209.2739)
