Two-proton overlap functions in the Jastrow correlation method and cross section of the ¹⁶O(e,e^(prime)pp)¹⁴C_(rm g.s.) reaction

Using the relationship between the two-particle overlap functions (TOF's) and the two-body density matrix (TDM), the TOF's for the $^{16}$O$(e,e^{\prime}pp)^{14}$C$_{\rm g.s.}$ reaction are calculated on the basis of a TDM obtained within the Jastrow correlation method. The main contributions of the removal of $^1S_0$ and $^3P_1$ $pp$ pairs from $^{16}$O are considered in the calculation of the cross section of the $^{16}$O$(e,e^{\prime}pp)^{14}$C$_{\rm g.s.}$ reaction using the Jastrow TOF's which include short-range correlations (SRC). The results are compared with the cross sections calculated with different theoretical treatments of the TOF's.
