CLAS E02-110 experiment: Evidence for the onset of Color Transparency (CT) in ρ0 electroproduction off nuclei • Diffractive electroproduction of the vector meson ρ0 • off nuclei offers a tool of choice to study CT • The small size pre-hadron ρ0 is directly produced from • the virtual photon since both are vector particles • The highest the space-time resolution (Q2) of the virtual • photon is, the smallest is the size of the produced pre-hadron • We observe that the nuclear medium becomes more • transparent to the produced ρ0 when Q2 increases in agreement with CT effects L.
