A characteristic feature of small-x lepton-proton data from HERA is geometric scaling -- the fact that over a wide range of x and Q^2 all data can be described by a single variable $Q^2/Q_{sat}^2(x)$, with all x-dependence encoded in the…
The evolution of the nucleon structure as a function of atomic mass A is considered for the first time for the lightest nuclei, D, 3H, 3He and 4He, with an approach based on the Bethe-Salpeter formalism. We show that the pattern of the…
The observation of scaling in processes in which a weakly interacting probe delivers large momentum ${\bf q}$ to a many-body system reflects the dominance of incoherent scattering off target constituents. While a suitably defined scaling…
Nuclear effects in light nuclei due to the presence of spin-one isosinglet 6-quark clusters are investigated. The quark distributions of 6-quark clusters are obtained by using a perturbative QCD (pQCD) based framework, which allows us to…
The nuclear medium effects are studied in the $\nu_\tau/\bar\nu_\tau$ interactions from nuclei in the deep inelastic scattering (DIS) region and applied to the $^{40}Ar$ nucleus to obtain the scattering cross sections in the energy region…
$Q^2$ evolution of structure functions in the nucleon and nuclei is investigated by using usual DGLAP equations and parton-recombination equations. Calculated results for proton's $F_2$ and for the ratio $F_2^{Ca}/F_2^D$ are compared with…
We analyze the processes of deep inelastic and quasielastic scattering in the region of x > 1. These processes are found to be very sensitive to the information contained in the nucleon spectral function in nuclei, particularly to the…
We consider a generalized convolution, linking Structure Functions (SF) $F^N_2$ for nucleons, $F^A_2$ for a physical nucleus and $f^{PN,A}$ for a nucleus, composed of point-nucleons. In order to extract $F_2^n$ we employ data on $F_2^{p,A}$…
A reanalysis of the model for the longitudinal structure function $F_L (x,Q^2)$ at low $x$ and low $Q^2$ was undertaken, in view of the advent of the EIC. The model is based on the photon-gluon fusion mechanism suitably extrapolated to the…
We discuss unpolarized neutrino- and anti-neutrino-nucleon deep inelastic scattering (DIS) using a chiral doublet of baryonic sources with explicit symmetry breaking, in a slice of AdS$_5$ with both a hard and soft wall. We explicitly…
We study implications of a model, which links nuclear and nucleon structure functions. Computed Callen-Gross functions $\kappa^A(x,Q^2)= 2xF_1^A(x,Q^2)/F_2^A(x,Q^2)$ appear for finite $Q^2$ to be close to their asymptotic value 1. Using…
We construct a simple two-phase model of the nucleon structure functions valid for both small and large Q^2 and in the broad range of Bjorken x. The model incorporates hadron dominance at small x and Q^2 and parton model at large Q^2. The…
We study polarized inelastic electron-nucleon scattering at low momentum transfer in the Witten-Sakai-Sugimoto model of holographic QCD, focusing on resonance production contributions to the nucleon spin structure functions. Our analysis…
We investigate the nucleon and pion gluon distribution functions in the framework of holographic QCD, focusing on the small Bjorken x region. Based on an approximate relation, the gluon distributions are extracted from structure functions…
The strong force that binds atomic nuclei is governed by the rules of Quantum Chromodynamics. Here we consider the suggestion the internal quark structure of a nucleon will adjust self-consistently to the local mean scalar field in a…
We discuss the implications of a "constituent quark" structure of the nucleon for the leading (1/Q^2-) power corrections to the spin structure functions. Our basic assumption is the presence of quark-gluon correlations in the nucleon wave…
In this paper, the parametrization of the nuclear structure function which is directly constrained by the dynamics of QCD in its high-energy limit is considered. This simple parameterization of the nuclear structure function is obtained…
We have used the notion of the constituent quark model of nucleon, where a constituent quark carries its own internal structure, and applied it to determine nuclear structure functions ratios. It is found that the description of…
We investigate meson's spectrum, decay constant and form factor in a nuclear medium through holographic two- and three-point correlation functions. To describe a nuclear medium composed of protons and neutrons, we consider a hard wall model…
We study the dipole picture of high-energy virtual-photon-proton scattering. It is shown that different choices for the energy variable in the dipole cross section used in the literature are not related to each other by simple arguments…
