The $x$-Region of Shadowing Corrections in Nucleon Structure Functions

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-30 v1

Abstract

We discuss the experimental indications on the behaviour of F_2(x,Q^2) at small x both in proton and nuclear targets. By comparing the parametrizations of the data we conclude that shadowing correction effects in a proton target can appear at a noticeable level for x=(2 - 4)\times10^{-4} and Q^2\sim 10^1 GeV^2, namely inside the HERA regime.
