Description
There has been a steady flux of new experimental evidences confirming
the presence of short-ranged structures inside atomic nuclei, dominated by correlations
between pairs of nucleons. The role of these internal nucleon-nucleon correlations
has been established using various energetic probes like photons, pions, leptons and
hadrons. These correlated structures are essential for understanding the interaction
of particles with nuclei and their presence provides an explanation of many specific
nuclear phenomena including backscattered protons, copious deuteron production, sub-
threshold particle production, neutrino interactions with nuclei and the EMC effect.
We will highlight a wide range of different experimental studies in this area along with
some specific suggetions for experimental observation of 3N correlation in upcoming
EIC experiment.
