Abstract
The cross section for quasielastic C-12(e, e'p) scattering has been me asured at momentum transfer Q2 = 1, 3, 5, and 6.8 (GeV/c)2. The result s are consistent with scattering from a single nucleon as the dominant process. The nuclear transparency is obtained and compared with theor etical calculations that incorporate color transparency effects. No si gnificant rise of the transparency with Q2 is observed.
