We present results from the Jefferson Lab E08-014 experiment, investigatingshort-range correlations (SRC) through measurements of absolute inclusivequasi-elastic cross sections and their ratios. This study utilized 3.356 GeVelectrons scattered off targets including $^2$H, $^3$He, $^4$He, $^{12}$C,$^{40}$Ca, and $^{48}$Ca, at modest momentum transfers ($1.3 < Q^2 \leq 2$GeV$^2$). Kinematics were selected to enhance the cross-section contributionfrom high-momentum nucleons originating from the strongly interacting,short-distance components of two-nucleon SRCs (2N-SRCs), known to exhibit auniversal structure across both light and heavy nuclei.We analyzed the A/$^2$Hratio within the region dominated by 2N-SRCs to characterize the nucleardependence of SRC contributions across various nuclei. Additionally, theA/$^3$He ratio was examined at kinematics sensitive to nucleons with evenhigher momentum, aiming to identify signals indicative of three-nucleon SRCs(3N-SRCs). The traditional analysis method in the expected 3N-SRC region ($x >2$) did not yield a clear plateau; instead, the data diverged from thepredicted 3N-SRC behavior as momentum transfer increased. However, whenanalyzed in terms of the struck nucleon's light-cone momentum, the dataexhibited the opposite trend, progressively approaching the predicted 3N-SRCplateau. These observations suggest that future measurements at higher energiesmay facilitate a definitive isolation and identification of 3N-SRCs.
