The EMC effect is studied by using the GLR-MQ-ZSR equation with minimum number of free parameters, where the nuclear shadowing effect is a dynamical evolution result of the equation, and nucleon swelling and Fermi motion in the nuclear…
The problem of understanding the nuclear effects observed in lepton-nucleus deep-inelastic-scattering (the EMC effect) is still with us. Standard nuclear models (those using only hadronic degrees of freedom) are not able to account for the…
We present a connection between the modifications induced by the nuclear medium of the nucleon form factors and of the deep inelastic structure functions, obtained using the concept of generalized parton distributions. Generalized parton…
Determination of parton distribution functions in nuclei is important for calculating nuclear corrections in oscillation experiments, from which detailed information should be extracted on neutrino properties. First, nuclear parton…
In the 35 years since the European Muon Collaboration announced the astonishing result that the valence structure of a nucleus was very different from that of a free nucleon, many explanations have been suggested. The first of the two most…

It is suggested to determine the $A$ dependence of distortions of the nucleon structure function $F_2(x)$ by summing the distortions over an interval ($x_1, x_2$). It was found from the analysis of data on deep--inelastic scattering of…
Elastic electromagnetic nucleon form factors have long provided vital information about the structure and composition of these most basic elements of nuclear physics. The form factors are a measurable and physical manifestation of the…
The Bessel-inspired behavior of parton densities at small Bjorken x values is used along with `frozen' and analytic modifications of the strong coupling constant [1] to study the so-called EMC effect. Among other results, this approach…
