Electron and Photon induced Reactions on Nuclei in the Nucleon Resonance Region

Abstract

We calculate total photon-nucleus and electron-nucleus cross sections $\gamma A\to X$, $eA\to e^{\prime }X$ and several cross sections on pion and eta production in nuclei in the energy regime between the first and the third resonance region for photon virtualities $Q^2\le 1.0Ge{V}^2$ within a semi-classical BUU transport model. In both cases we discuss the varying influence of several medium modifications on the cross sections for different values of Q^2.
