S. Boffi et al., DENSITY-DEPENDENCE OF RESONANCE BROADENING AND SHADOWING EFFECTS IN NUCLEAR PHOTOABSORPTION, Physics of atomic nuclei, 60(7), 1997, pp. 1193-1196
Medium effects versus the mass number A are studied in the total photo
nuclear cross section in the energy range from the Delta resonance up
to the region where shadowing effects are known to exist. A consistent
picture is obtained by simply assuming a density dependence of variou
s mechanisms of resonance broadening and shadowing. The Delta-mass shi
ft is found to increase with A.
