ELECTRODISINTEGRATION OF THE DEUTERON AND COLOR TRANSPARENCY

Quasi-elastic wide-angle ep-scattering on the deuteron, which is the simplest reaction where color transparency can be investigated, is analyzed on the basis of the multiple scattering theory. Color transparency reveals itself as a cancelation of elastic and inelastic shadowing. We calculate the energy dependence of the color transparency factor and the effects related to the Fermi motion. Extension of the results on other nuclei is also discussed.
