We extract the complete four-dimensional evolution of the pre-hadrons using the Jetset-part of Pythia. We find a remarkable sensitivity of nuclear attenuation data to the details of the time-evolution of cross sections. Only cross sections evolving linearly in time describe the available data in a wide kinematical regime. Predictions for experimental conditions at JLAB/CLAS (5 and 12 GeV beam energies) are included.

This discrepancy has led to various quite different explanations in terms of increased axial masses, changes in the functional form of the axial form factor, increased vector strength in nuclei, and initial 2-particle interactions. This is disconcerting since the neutrino energy reconstruction depends on the reaction mechanism.

In particular, data from neutrino experiments with broad energy distributions require complex theoretical models that are able to take all the relevant channels into account as well as incorporate nuclear effects in both initial and final-state interactions.

In this work we present transport model predictions for the attenuation of ρ 0 s in nuclei and for color transparency (CT) effects as observable at CLAS with a 5 GeV electron beam energy. A full event simulation presented here permits to study the impact of actual experimental acceptance conditions and kinematical cuts. The exclusive (e, e ′ ρ 0 ) cross section off nucleons is described by diffractive and color string breaking mechanisms extended toward the onset of the deep inelastic regime. Different hadronization and CT scenarios are compared. We show that a detailed analysis of elementary cross section, nuclear effects and experimental cuts is needed to reveal the early onset of ρ-CT at present JLAB energies.

Predictions for the 30 GeV data for pions and kaons from the NA61/SHINE experiment are included.

We discuss coherence length and color transparency effects in exclusive ρ 0 production as well as hadron formation and attenuation of charged pions, kaons, protons and anti-protons in deep inelastic lepton scattering off nuclei.

We derive a novel, simple expression for the incoherent electroproduction cross section in which one can clearly separate the final state interactions of the reaction products from the 'initial state interactions' of the photon that give rise to nuclear shadowing. In the special case of purely absorptive final state interactions we deduce from our expression the known Glauber result. A more realistic treatment of the final state interactions within a transport model is then used to compare our predictions with experimental data from the HERMES experiment.
