Description
I will report on the Jefferson Lab (JLab) Hall C experiment E12-10-008 that finished data taking in February ‘23. Multiple cryogenic and solid targets were used to measure inclusive electron scattering using a 10.5 GeV beam from the accelerator at JLab. The EMC effect is the phenomenon that the internal structure of the bound nucleon is different from that of a free nucleon. In this experiment, for a series of light to heavy nuclei, we measured cross section ratios at Bjorken-x<1, where the EMC effect dominates. These results will further elucidate the connection between how quarks are distributed within nuclei and how it relates to the nuclear structure. I will also present N/Z dependence of the EMC effect for light and medium nuclei.
