Abstract

A classification of the different contributions to nuclear structure functions is presented. Using a relativistic description of the nucleus, we predict the behavior of the structure functions of different nuclei for values of the nucleon Bjorken variable χ⩾1.

Nuclear effects on the extraction of sin<sup>2</sup> θ<inf>W</inf>
2002, Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy Physics
We study the impact of nuclear effects on the extraction of the weak-mixing angle sin²θ_W from deep inelastic (anti-)neutrino–nucleus scattering, with special emphasis on the recently announced NuTeV Collaboration 3σ deviation of sin²θ_W from its standard model value. We have found that nuclear effects, which are very important in electromagnetic deep inelastic scattering (DIS), are quite small in weak charged current DIS. In neutral current DIS processes, which contain the weak mixing angle, we predict that these effects play also an important role and may dramatically affect the value of sin²θ_W extracted from the experimental data.

Inclusive electron scattering at high Q<sup>2</sup> in the region 1 < x < 3
1988, Nuclear Physics, Section A
New inclusive electron scattering data at high Q² from nuclei taken in the x-range unavailable to the free nucleon are presented. The rations of cross section per nucleon, case|4/56dσ^Fe/dσ^He, show a plateau for 1.3 < x < 2.0 which has been suggested as a signature of quark clusters in nuclei. The subtraction of the quasielastic cross section from the inclusive spectra reveals that the data scale in x at low momentum transfer. A proposal for a new experiment is discussed.
