Starting from a covariant relativistic formalism which uses nucleon and pion propagators in a nuclear medium, we revise the traditional effects of Fermi motion, binding and mesonic corrections to the EMC effect. The calculations are done in…
An explicit quark model, based on a mean field description of non-overlapping nucleon bags bound by the self-consistent exchange of $\sigma$, $\omega$ and $\rho$ mesons, is used to investigate the properties of both nuclear and neutron…
We calculated the polarized parton distributions in leading order approximation in QCD from valon model. Polarized structure function of the nucleon are analyzed in the polarized valon model in which a nucleon is assumed to be a bound state…
Polarization transfer in quasi-elastic nucleon knockout is sensitive to the properties of the nucleon in the nuclear medium, including possible modification of the nucleon form factor and/or spinor. In our recently completed experiment…

High energy lepton scattering has been the primary tool for mapping out the quark distributions of nucleons and nuclei. Data on the proton and deuteron have shown that there is a fundamental connection between the low and high energy…
The authors's point of view, based on QCD, on the nuclear quark structure is presented. Different models for explaining the EMC--effect are considered. It is also shown that cumulative production data are very useful for a better…
We study EMC ratios on the basis of a relation between Structure Functions (SF) for a nucleus and for a nucleon, which is governed by a SF f^{PN,A}(x,Q^2) of an unphysical nucleus, composed of point-nucleons. We demonstrate that the…
