Abstract: Di-hadron Correlations in eA scattering at CLAS

Two of the questions posed by the 2023 Nuclear Science Long Range Plan are how hadrons produced in deep inelastic scattering are correlated with one another, and how the nuclear medium modifies the hadronization process. The results we present in this talk on azimuthal correlations in pairs of charged pions measured by the CLAS collaboration seek to answer both of these questions. We find that the correlation functions peak at Δφ=π and that this peak is shorter and wider for heavier nuclei than for deuterium. We will also give predictions for similar planned measurements of di-pion and pion-proton correlations in a follow-up experiment with the upgraded

CLAS12 detector setup.
