We discuss shadowing corrections to the structure function $F_2$ in neutrino deep-inelastic scattering on heavy nuclear targets. In particular, we examine the role played by shadowing in the comparison of the structure functions $F_2$…
We review predictions of the theory of leading twist nuclear shadowing for inclusive unpolarized and polarized deuteron structure functions F_2^D, g_1^D and b_1^D and for the tagged deuteron structure function F_2^D(x,Q^2,\vec{p}). We…
The nucleon structure function $F_2^N$ computed in a holographic framework can be used to describe nuclear deep inelastic scattering effects provided that a rescaling of the $Q^2$ momentum and of the IR hard-wall parameter $z_0$ is made.…
We consider the effect of nuclear shadowing in polarized deep inelastic scattering (DIS) on ^6LiD at small Bjorken x and its relevance to the extraction of the deuteron spin structure function g_{1}^{d}(x,Q^2). Using models, which describe…
Rho photoproduction on complex nuclei is re-examined using a generalised vector dominance model which succesfully predicts the observed nuclear shadowing in real photoabsorption and deep inelastic scattering. This model is shown to give a…
Nuclear shadowing corrections are dominated by soft interaction and grow as function of $1/x$ more slowly than the single scattering term, which has an essential contribution from hard interaction. Therefore, we predict vanishing nuclear…
Nuclear shadowing in the structure function $F_3$ is investigated as a possible test of shadowing models. The $F_3$ shadowing is studied in two different theoretical models: a parton-recombination model with $Q^2$ rescaling and an…
We study the tensor structure function $b_1\xq$ in deep inelastic scattering (DIS) of an electron from a polarized deuteron target. We model the electron-nucleon cross section at the starting point for $Q^2$ evolution by…

A new scaling variable is introduced in terms of which nuclear shadowing in deep-inelastic scattering is universal, i.e. independent of $A$, $Q^2$ and $x$. This variable can be interpreted as a measure of the number of gluons probed by the…
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…
The formulae for shadowing corrections in deep inelastic leptoproduction of vector mesons are presented. These formulae are also applicable for photoproduction of vector mesons constituted of heavy quarks. Our results are conveniently…
We calculate the shadowing effect in nuclear photoabsorption at low photon energies (1-3 GeV) within a multiple scattering approach. We avoid some of the high energy approximations that are usually made in simple Glauber theory like the…
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…
This review outlines our present experimental knowledge and theoretical understanding of deep-inelastic scattering on nuclear targets. The emphasis is primarily on nuclear coherence phenomena, such as shadowing, where the key physics issue…
We calculate the x dependence of nuclear shadowing at moderate values of Q^2 by using HERA diffractive data and, for consistency, F2 parameterization of ZEUS. We show that no decrease of shadowing occurs down to very low x (x = 10^-4).
We estimate the perturbative nuclear shadowing in the nuclear structure function $F_2^A(x,Q^2)$, mainly at the kinematic region of HERA using the Glauber-Mueller approach. The contributions of the quark and gluon sectors to the nuclear…
We discuss the close relation between shadowing in deep-inelastic lepton-nucleus scattering and diffractive photo- and leptoproduction of hadrons from free nucleons. We show that the magnitude of nuclear shadowing at small Bjorken-x, as…
We consider the nuclear shadowing in deep-inelastic scattering corresponding to kinematic regions accessible by future experiments at electron-ion colliders. The gluon distribution at small $x$ is obtained using an improved dipole model…
We calculate the nuclear shadowing ratio for a wide range of nuclei at small Bjorken-x in the framework of Gribov theory. The coherent contribution to the (virtual) photon-nucleon cross section is obtained in terms of the diffractive…
