This project covers an electron scattering program on light nuclei that will serve as a benchmark to constrain state-of-the-art theoretical calculations in a combined theoretical and experimental effort. High-precision inclusive and exclusive electron scattering data in the sector of few-body systems offer a rich insight into the nuclear dynamics. Electron scattering observables measure the matrix element of the electroweak current operators, which should be consistently derived within an Effective Field Theory (EFT). This offers a unique opportunity to complete and benchmark the theory.
