EFFECT DUE TO COMPOSITENESS OF NUCLEONS IN DEEP INELASTIC LEPTON NUCLEUS SCATTERING

Effect due to compositeness of nucleons in deep inelastic lepton nucleus scattering

The off-shell behaviors of bound nucleons in deep inelastic lepton nucleus scattering are discussed in two scenarios with the basic constituents chosen to be baryon-mesons and quark-gluons respectively in light-cone formalism. It is found that when taking into account the effect due to internal quark structure of nucleons, the derived scaling variable for bound nucleons and the calculated nucle...

Hadron production in deep inelastic lepton-nucleus scattering

Predictions for semi-inclusive deep inelastic lepton-nucleus scattering are presented. Both the effects of gluon radiation by the struck quark and the absorption of the produced hadron are considered. The gluon radiation covers a larger window in virtuality Q2 because of the increased deconfinement of quarks inside nuclei. The absorption of hadrons formed inside the nucleus is described with a ...

deep-inelastic lepton-hadron scattering

The most important part of the order α s corrections to the charm component of the charged-current structure functions F2(x,Q ) and F3(x,Q ) have been calculated. This calculation is based on the asymptotic form of the heavy-quark coefficient functions corresponding to the higher order corrections to the W-boson-gluon fusion process. These coefficient functions which are in principle only valid...

Deep-inelastic scattering from off-shell nucleons.

We derive the general structure of the hadronic tensor required to describe deep-inelastic scattering from an off-shell nucleon within a covariant formalism. Of the large number of possible off-shell structure functions we find that only three contribute in the Bjorken limit. In our approach the usual ambiguities encountered when discussing problems related to off-shellness in deep-inelastic sc...
