We make detailed comparisons between the measured $Q^2$ dependency of nuclear transparency in quasifree electron scattering and theoretical predictions based on Glauber theory. We also describe a theory-free method to extract $T$ from data.
We study nuclear structure effects on the transparency in high transverse momentum $(p,2p)$ and $(e,e'p)$ reactions. We show that in the DWIA-eikonal approximation, even when correlations are included, one can get a factorized expression for the transparency. This depends only on the average nucleon density $ρ(r)$ and a correlation function. We develop a technique to include correlations in a Monte-Carlo Glauber type calculation. We compare calculations of $T$ using the eikonal formalism and a continuous density, with a Monte Carlo method based on discrete nucleons.
