Search for color transparency in A(e,e'p) at high momentum transfer

Rates for A(e, e'p) on the nuclei ^2H, C, Fe, and Au have been measured at momentum transfers Q^2 = 1, 3, 5, and 6.8 (GeV fc)^2 . We extract the nuclear transparency T, a measure of the importance of final state interactions (FSI) between the outgoing proton and the recoil nucleus. Some calculations based on perturbative QCD predict an increase in T with momentum transfer, a phenomenon known as Color Transparency. No statistically significant rise is seen in the present experiment.

Class two p groups as fixed point free automorphism groups

<p>Suppose that AG is a solvable group with normal subgroup G where (|A|, |G|) = 1. Assume that A is a class two odd p group all of whose irreducible representations are isomorphic to subgroups of extra special p groups. If p<sup>cp> ≠ rp>dp> + 1 for any c = 1, 2 and any prime r where rp>2d+1p> divides |G| and if C_G(A) = 1 then the Fitting length of G is bounded by the power of p dividing |A|.p> <p>The theorem is proved by applying a fixed point theorem to a reduction of the Fitting series of G. The fixed point theorem is proved by reducing a minimal counter example. IF R is an extra spec r subgroup of G fixed by A₁, a subgroup of A, where A₁ centralizes D(R), then all irreducible characters of A₁R which are nontrivial on Z(R) are computed. All nonlinear characters of a class two p group are computed. p>
