Short range correlations in nuclei and nuclear matter arise from the strong repulsion of the nuclear interaction at short distances. The existence of these correlations has been confirmed in a variety of nuclear experiments with electroweak and hadronic probes. The theoretical and experimental efforts in the last decade have focused on quantifying short-range correlations and, in particular, their isospin dependence. Here, I will analyze and summarise some of the recent conclusions in the literature using as a baseline a theoretical method, based on many-body Green’s functions theory, and a single quantity, the one-body momentum distribution.
