Data on the nucleon spin structure suggests that the $u$ (and $d$) quark distributions in the $\Lambda$ hyperon may be polarized. If this correlation carries over into fragmentation, then the study of polarized $\Lambda$'s in the current…

Since the discovery that the ratio of inclusive charged lepton (per-nucleon) cross sections from a nucleus A to the deuteron is not unity - even in deep inelastic scattering kinematics - a great deal of experimental and theoretical effort…
Isospin-dependent nuclear forces play a fundamental role in nuclear structure. In relativistic models of nuclear structure constructed at the quark level these isovector nuclear forces affect the u and d quarks differently, leading to…
The response of a nucleus composed of nucleons and confined quarks is calculated in a non-relativistic cluster model and is shown to be a convolution of responses of, respectively, a nucleus with interacting point-nucleons and of a nucleon…

Nuclear effects in polarized inelastic electron scattering off polarized $^3He$ and polarized $^2H$ are discussed; in the resonance region, Fermi motion effects are found to be much larger than in deep inelastic scattering. It is shown that…
We discuss nuclear modification of fragmentation functions in the context of the so-called ``rescaling models''. These models implement partial deconfinement inside nuclei by modifying the fragmentation functions perturbatively. We apply…
