We suggest to use polarized nuclear targets of $^7$Li and $^3$He to study nuclear effects in the spin dependent structure functions $g_{1A}(x,Q^2)$. These effects are expected to be enhanced by a factor of two as compared to the unpolarized…

Shadowing is a quantum phenomenon leading to a non-additivity of electroweak cross sections on nucleons bound in a nucleus. It occurs due to destructive interference of amplitudes on different nucleons. Although the current experimental…
